ATTENTION
48) Incorrect installation could render the
child restraint system ineffective. In fact,
the child restraint system could become
loose in the event of an accident. The child
could be seriously or fatally injured. Strictly
follow the manufacturer's instructions when
installing the child restraint system.
49) When the child restraint system is not
used, secure it with the seat belt or with the
ISOFIX anchorages, or remove it from the
car. Do not leave it unsecured inside the
passenger compartment. This will ensure
it cannot injure occupants in the event of
abrupt braking or an accident.

50) After installing a child restraint system
in the car, do not move the seat forwards
or back as it could loosen the attachments.
Remove the child restraint system to adjust
illuminates
the seat position. Install the child restraint
system again once the seat has been
adjusted.
51) SEVERE DANGER When a front
passenger airbag is fitted, do not install
rearward facing child restraint systems on
the front passenger seat. Deployment of the
airbag in a crash could cause fatal injuries
to the child regardless of the severity of
the collision. It is advisable to always carry
children in a child restraint system on the
rear seat, which is the most protected
position in the event of a collision.
52) There is a symbol on the label on
the sun visor that illustrates the need to
deactivate the air bag if you are installing
a rear-facing child seat. Always comply
with the instructions on the passenger side
sun visor (see the "Airbag" chapter on the
Owner Handbook).
53) Should it be necessary to carry a
child on the passenger side front seat in
a rearward facing child restraint system,
the passenger side front airbag and side
bag must be deactivated through the
key-operated switch in the glovebox,
verifying deactivation by checking whether
the OFF
panel located on the ceiling. Move the
passenger's seat as far back as possible to
avoid contact between the child seat and
the dashboard.
