WHAT ARE ISOFIX LOW ANCHORAGES IN A VEHICLE?
ISOFIX low anchorages are fixed, standardised anchoring points for securely installing
an ISOFIX compatible child restraint in a vehicle with ISOFIX low anchorages.
It has now become an international standard for vehicles. This anchoring technology
minimises installation mistakes by optimising the protective effect of a solid connection
between vehicle and ISOFIX compatible child restraint.
INSTALLING THE BASE INTO THE CAR
(USING ISOFLEX CONNECTORS IF FITTED)
To prevent damage to vehicle seat it may be necessary
to remove or open a trim covering the ISOFIX low
anchorages.
A. Locate the ISOFIX Low Anchorages in the vehicle
seat bight. The location may be identified by one of
the following symbols, or the anchorage bars may
be visible.
If you cannot locate them, check your vehicle owners manual.
B. If necessary, clip the two insertion guides to the two ISOFIX fastening points of the
vehicle seat (between seat and backrest). Tab must be upwards. Allow the guides to
rise so they hook on to the ISOFIX low anchor bars. The guides are provided to allow
easier alignment of the child restraint. The guides are not required where anchors
are visible or there are already guides provided in the vehicle seat.
