* Insertion guides are already installed as
standard in some vehicle model series.
The insertion guides make it easier to fit the
child seat with ISOFIX and avoid damage to
the seat cover. They should be removed
when not in use and kept in a safe place. In
vehicles with down backrests, the insertion
guides must be removed before folding
down the backrest.
