(1/2)

There are two ways of attaching child

seats: via the seat belt or using the

ISOFIX system.

Attachment via the seat belt
The seat belt must be adjusted to

ensure that it is effective in the event of

harsh braking or an impact.
Ensure that the strap paths indicated

by the child seat manufacturer are re-

spected.
Always check that the seat belt is cor-

rectly fastened by pulling it up, then

pulling it out fully whilst pressing on the

child seat.
Check that the seat is correctly held by

moving it from side to side and back

to front: the seat should remain firmly

fixed.
Check that the child seat has not been

installed at an angle and that it is not

resting against a window.

Attachment using the IsOFIX

system
Authorised ISOFIX child seats are ap-

proved in accordance with regulation

ECE-R44 in one of the three following

scenarios:

– ISOFIX universal 3-point forwardfac-

ing seat

– ISOFIX semi-universal 2-point seat

– specific
For the latter two, check that your child

seat can be installed by consulting the

list of compatible vehicles.
Attach the child seat with the ISOFIX

locks, if these are provided. The ISOFIX

system allows quick, easy, safe fitting.

The ISOFIX system consists of 2 rings

and, in some cases, a third ring.

Before using an ISOFIX

child seat that you pur-

chased for another vehicle,

check that its installation is

authorised. Consult the list of ve-

hicles which can be fitted with the

seat from the equipment manufac-

turer.

No modifications may be

made to the component

parts of the restraint system

(ISOFIX seat belts, seats

and their mountings) originally fitted.

The seat belt must never

be twisted or the tension

relieved. Never pass the

shoulder strap under the

arm or behind the back.

Check that the seat belt has not

been damaged by sharp edges.

If the seat belt does not operate nor-

mally, it will not protect the child.

Consult an approved dealer. Do not

use this seat until the seat belt has

been repaired.

Do not use the child seat

if it may unfasten the seat

belt restraining it: the base

of the seat must not rest on

the buckle and/or catch of the seat

belt.

The ISOFIX anchorage

points have been exclu-

sively designed for child

seats with the ISOFIX

system. Never fit a different type of

child seat, seat belt or other objects

to these anchorage points.
Check that nothing is obstructing

the anchorage points.
If your vehicle has been involved in

a road accident, have the ISOFIX

anchorage points checked and re-

place your child seat.

The third ring is used to attach the

upper strap on some child seats.
Pass the belt between the seatback

and the rear parcel shelf (to release

the bench seat: refer to Section 3 “Rear

bench seat”). Attach the hook to one

of the rings 3 in the luggage compart-

ment.
Pull the belt so that the back of the child

seat comes into contact with the vehicle

seatback.

The two rings 1 are located between

the seatback and the seat base of the

seat and are identified by a marking.
To ensure your child seat can be easily

fitted and locked on rings 1, use access

guides 2 on the child seat.

Some seats are not suitable for fitting

child seats. The diagram on the follow-

ing page shows you how to attach a

child seat.
The types of child seats indicated may

not be available. Before using a differ-

ent child seat, check with the manufac-

turer that it can be fitted.

fitting a child seat

ChILD sAFETY: Fitting a child seat

(1/9)

In the rear side seat

A carrycot can be installed across the

vehicle and will take up at least two

seats. Position the child with his or her

feet nearest the door.

Move the front seat as far forward as

possible to install a rear-facing child

seat, then move back the seat in front

as far as it will go, although without al-

lowing it to come into contact with the

child seat.

For the safety of the child in the for-

ward-facing seat, do not move the seat

in front back past the middle of the

runner, do not tilt the seatback too far

(maximum of 25°) and raise the seat as

much as possible.

Check that the forward-facing child seat

is resting against the back of the vehi-

cle seat and that the headrest of the ve-

hicle is not obstructing its use.

In the front seat

The laws concerning children travel-

ling in the front passenger seat differ in

every country. Consult the legislation in

force and follow the indications on the

diagram on the following page.
Before fitting a child seat in this seat (if

authorised):

– lower the seat belt as far as possible;

– move the seat as far back as possi-

ble;

– gently tilt the seatback away from

vertical (approximately 25°);

– on equipped vehicles, raise the seat

base as far as possible.

Do not change these settings after the

child seat is installed.

RIsK OF DEATh OR

sERIOUs INJURY: before

fitting a rear-facing child

seat to this seat, check

that the air bag has been deacti-

vated (refer to the information on

“Child safety: deactivating/activat-

ing the front passenger air bag” in

Section 1).

Fit the child seat in a rear

seat wherever possible.
Check that when installing

the child seat in the vehicle

it is not at risk of coming loose from

its base.
If you have to remove the headrest,

check that it is correctly stored so

that it does not come loose under

harsh braking or impact.
Always attach the child seat to the

vehicle even if it is not in use so that

it does not come loose under harsh

braking or impact.

Ensure that the child seat

or the child’s feet do not

prevent the front seat from

locking correctly. Refer to

the information on the “Front seat”

in Section 1.
