CRS to the vehicle seat up to a combined child
and CRS weight of 65 lbs/30 kg when the child is
restrained by the internal harnesses.
Safety information
Warning
If the lower mountings of the child restraint sys‐
tem are not correctly engaged, the protective
effect of the child restraint system is limited.
There is a risk of injury or mortal hazard. Make
sure that the lower mountings are correctly en‐
gaged and that the child restraint system fits
securely against the backrest.

tachment points of the child restraint system
are intended for attaching child restraint sys‐
tems only. The mounts or attachment points
can be damaged when attaching other objects.
There is a risk of injury or risk of damage to
property. Attach child restraint systems only at
the corresponding mounts for the lower mount‐
ings or attachment points.
