Securing child seats

Ways to secure a child seat
A child seat can be secured differently on the rear seat and on
the front passenger seat.
You can secure a child seat to the rear seat or front passenger seat in the
following ways:
•
Child seats in groups 0 to 3 can be secured with a seat belt.
•
Child seats for groups 0, 0+ and 1 with the "ISOFIX" system can be
secured, without fastening seat belts, with the "ISOFIX" securing rings
⇒ page 51.

WARNING
•
When travelling, children must be secured in the vehicle with a
restraint system suitable for age, weight and size.
•
Never install a child seat facing backwards (or rear-facing) on the front
passenger seat unless the front passenger airbag has been disabled. This
could lead to a risk of potentially fatal injuries to the child! However, if, in
exceptional cases, it is necessary to transport a child in the front passenger
seat, the front passenger airbag ⇒ page 44, "Deactivating airbags*" must
always be disabled and the seat adjusted to its highest position, where
possible.
•
Read and always observe information and warnings concerning the use
of child seats ⇒ page 47.
Securing a child seat with the "ISOFIX" system
Child seats can be secured quickly, easily and safely on the
rear outer seats with the "ISOFIX" system.
