•
Every child has to use one child
restraint system; never carry two
children using only one child seat.
• In case of accident, replace the child
seat with a new one.
• When your CRS is not used, secure
it in the vehicle with the seat belt
or remove it from the vehicle. Do
not leave it loose in the vehicle. In a
sudden stop or accident, it could strike
the occupants or seatbacks and cause
serious personal injury.

Babies up to 13 kg (29 lb) must be

three-point seat belt or by the Isofix
anchorages. Check "Installing CRS using

For Group 0/0+ Semi Universal Isofix
CRS are available, always check
the manual to ensure the car seat is
approved for your specific vehicle.

Understanding the Vehicle
CRS Group 2

the three-point seat belt or by the Isofix
anchorages. Refer to "Installing Child

This type of child seat is featured to
position the child correctly towards
the belts so that the diagonal section
crosses the child's chest and not its
neck, and the lower part is snug on the
pelvis and not on the abdomen. Always
check that the seat belts do not restrain
the child's throat.
