injured, even fatally. When fitting a restraint
system for newborns or children, strictly
comply with the instructions provided by
the Manufacturer.
83) When the child restraint system is
not used, secure it with the seat belt or
with the ISOFIX anchorages, or remove
it from the car. Do not leave it unsecured
inside the passenger compartment. In this
way, in the event of sudden braking or an
accident, it will not cause injuries to the
occupants.
84) After installing a child restraint system,
do not move the seat: always remove the
child restraint system before making any
adjustment.
85) 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.
INSTALLING AN ISOFIX
CHILD RESTRAINT
SYSTEM
86) 87) 88)
The rear side seats of the car are
equipped with ISOFIX anchors, for
fitting child restraint systems quickly,
simply and safely. The ISOFIX system
lets you install the ISOFIX child
restraining system without using the car
seat belts but connecting them directly
to the car seat with three anchorages in
the car.
Traditional child restraint systems
can be fitted alongside ISOFIX child
restraint systems on different seats in
the same vehicle. To install an ISOFIX
child restraint system, attach it to the
two metal anchor points (A) fig. 77
located where the rear seat cushion
meets the backrest, then fix the upper
strap (available together with the
restraint system) to the dedicated
anchor point (B) fig. 78 located at the
bottom behind the backrest.

instructions, which must be included.
