Child seats fitted with the "ISOFIX" system can only be mounted and fixed in a

for this type of vehicle according to the ECE-R 44 standard.
Child safety seats with the fixing system "ISOFIX" can be obtained from Škoda orig-
inal accessories.
Complete installation instructions are enclosed with the child safety seat.
WARNING
•
The locking eyes have just been developed for child safety seats which use
the "ISOFIX" system. You should therefore never attach other child safety seats,
seat belts or objects to the locking eyes - hazard!
•
Ask an authorised Škoda Service Partner whether a child seat which you
bought for another vehicle is recommended for use in a Škoda before using an
"ISOFIX" system.

Certain child seats which use the "ISOFIX" system can be attached with
standard three-point seat belts. Please pay close attention to instructions from
the manufacturer of the child safety seat when installing and removing the seat.

Child seats which use the "ISOFIX" system are currently available for children
weighing up to about 18 kg. This corresponds to an age range up to 4 years.
