tween the inflatable portion of the seat belt and
this child restraint system could cause serious
injury or death. Do not install this child restraint
equipment where an inflatable safety harness
must be used. Install it using the Isofix system
or move the child car seat to a suitable type of
safety harness. During installation with the Isofix
system, the safety harness may not be fastened
behind the child car seat, as this would engage
the inflatable portion of the safety harness.
WARNING! SERIOUS DANGER! Never use this
device fitted on front vehicle's seats equipped
with a front airbag. It is possible to fit the i-Size
base and the child car seat on a front seat only
if the front airbag has been deactivated: check
with the car manufacturer or see the owner's
manual for instructions on how to deactivate
the airbag. It is always recommended to slide
the vehicle seat as far back as possible de-
pending on whether passengers are travelling
on the back seat or not.
