#
FIX child restraint system is correctly engaged
in both mounting brackets in the vehicle.
* NOTE Damage to the seat belt for the cen-
ter seat during installation of the child

both mounting brackets in the vehicle.
Fastening a Top Tether
& WARNING Risk of injury or death if the
rear seat backrests are not locked after
Top Tether belts are installed
The rear seat backrests may fold forwards.
As a result, child restraint systems will no lon-
ger be able to perform their intended protec-
tive function. This may also cause additional
injuries.
Always lock rear seat backrests after
#
installing Top Tether belts.
Adjust the rear seat backrests so that
#
they are in an upright position.
Ensure that the rear seat backrest is engaged. To
do so, pull forcefully on the seat backrest.
¯ If the child restraint system is equipped
with a Top Tether belt:
The risk of injury may be reduced by Top
Tether. The Top Tether belt enables an
additional connection between the child
restraint system attached with ISOFIX (left
and right rear seats) or the seat belt (all
rear seats) and the vehicle.
