PASSENGER SEAT COMPLIANCE WITH REGULATIONS ON UNIVERSAL CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM USE
According to the European Directive 2000/3/EC the suitability of each passenger seat position for the fixing of universal child
restraint systems is shown in the following table:
Group
Group 0, 0+
Group 1
Group 2
Group 3
(*) IMPORTANT NEVER fit a rearward-facing child seat in the front passenger seat if the airbag is active. If you wish to fit a rearward-facing child seat
in the front passenger seat, first deactivate the relative airbag (see instructions in the paragraph "Supplementary protection system (SRS) –
Airbag").
"X"= Position not suitable for children in this weight category.
U= Suitable for child restraint systems in the "Universal" category, according to European Regulation EEC-R44 for the specified "Groups".
67) Child restraint systems with Isofix attachments are available for a safe anchoring to the seat without using the car seat belts. See paragraph
"Isofix child restraint system setup" for the fitting instructions.
68) The diagram is indicative and for fitting purposes only. Fit the child restraint system according to the instructions, which must be included.
69) When the child restraint system is not used, secure it with the seat belt or with the ISOFIX anchorages, or remove it from the vehicle. Do not
leave it unsecured inside the passenger compartment. In this way, in the case of sudden braking or an accident, it will not cause injuries to the
occupants.
70) After installing a child restraint system, do not move the seat: always remove the child restraint system before making any adjustment.
71) Always make sure that the diagonal section of the seat belt does not pass under the arms or behind the back of the child. In the event of an
accident the seat belt will not be able to secure the child, with the risk of injury, including fatal injury. Therefore the child must always wear the seat
belt correctly.
72) Incorrect fitting of the child restraint system may result in an inefficient protection system. In the event of an accident the child restraint
system may become loose and the child may be injured, even fatally. When fitting a restraint system for newborns or children, strictly comply with
the instructions provided by the Manufacturer.
