Securing the child restraint system with the
seat belt on the front passenger seat
When fitting a belt-secured child restraint sys‐
tem on the front passenger seat, always observe
the following:
O Observe the child restraint system manufac‐
turer's installation and operating instruc‐
tions.
O For a child restraint system in the "Univer‐
sal" or "Semi-Universal" category, make
sure that the system has been approved for
the vehicle seat.
Observe the notes under "Suitability of
seats for attaching belt-secured child
restraint systems" ( page 72).
/
O When using a forward-facing child restraint
system in category I: remove the head
restraint from the respective seat, if possi‐
ble.
After the child restraint system has been
removed, replace the head restraints imme‐
diately and adjust them correctly.
O The backrest of the forward-facing child
restraint system must, as far as possible, be
resting on the seat backrest of the front
passenger seat.
O For certain child restraint systems in weight
category II or III, there may be restrictions
on the maximum size setting, e.g. due to
possible contact with the roof.
O The child restraint system must not be ten‐
sioned between the roof and the seat cush‐
ion and/or be fitted facing the wrong direc‐
tion.
O The child restraint system must not be put
under strain by the head restraints. Adjust
the head restraints accordingly.
O Never place objects under or behind the
child restraint system, e.g. cushions.
Set the front passenger seat as far back as
#
possible and move the seat into the highest
position if possible.
Adjust the seat cushion inclination so that
#
the front edge of the seat cushion is in the
highest position and the rear edge of the
seat cushion is in the lowest position.
Set the seat backrest to the most vertical
#
position possible.
Fit the child restraint system.
#
The entire base of the child restraint system
must always rest on the sitting surface of the
front passenger seat.
Always make sure that the shoulder belt
#
strap is correctly routed from the seat belt
outlet of the vehicle to the shoulder belt
guide on the child restraint system.
The shoulder belt strap must be routed for‐
wards and downwards from the seat belt out‐
let.
If necessary, adjust the front passenger seat
#
accordingly.
