WARNING: We recommend that you
choose the seat that best suits the
shape of your vehicle's seat and that
you try to install the seat before
purchasing it.
Always pull the seat belt to check that
it is locked in place.
All restraint system is for use by a
single passenger only: never carry two
children in the same seat.
Always check that the seat belts are
not resting against the child's neck.
Do not allow the child to sit in
improper positions or to unbuckle the
seat belt /child seat safety harness
while travelling.
Do not carry children in your arms,
including babies. Nobody, however
strong, can hold on to a child in the
event of a collision.
After an accident, always replace the
child seat with a new one.

Isofix seats

The rear side seats of the vehicle are
equipped with anchoring points for
Isofix child seats. This is a new system
complying with European standards
for carrying children.
This system provides a special
anchoring system for child seats, which
uses two metal brackets B positioned
between the seat cushion and
backrest.
These metal brackets are easily
identifiable through the label
bearing the logo shown
below.
The seats designed for Isofix child seats
installation can always be fitted with
standard child seats:
you can actually install a standard and
an Isofix child seat at the same time.
B
The rear seats can be fitted with two
standard seats or two Isofix seats max.
Only standard type child seats can be
mounted on the front passenger seat.
Deactivate the airbag before fitting a
rearward-facing child seat on the front
passenger seat. In addition, the front
passenger seat must be positioned
fully back and the backrest must be in
the fully upright position.
The Isofix system covers three weight
groups: 0. 0+ and 1.
Fit the child seat only when
the vehicle is stationary. The
child seat is correctly anchored
to the brackets when a click indicates
it is locked in place. Follow the
mounting, removal and positioning
instructions provided by the child seat
manufacturer.
