CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM (CRS)

Our recommendation: Children

always in the rear

WARNING

Always properly restrain children in

the vehicle. Children oý all aþes are

saýer when ridinþ in the rear seats.

Never place a rearward-ýacinþ Child

Restraint System on the ýront pas‐

senþer seat, unless the air baþ is de‐

activated.

Children under aþe 13 should always

ride in the rear seats and must always

be properly restrained to minimize the

risk oý injury in an accident, sudden

stop or sudden maneuver.

Accordinþ to accident statistics, chil‐

dren are saýer when properly restrain‐

ed in the rear seats than in the ýront

seat. Children too larþe ýor a Child Re‐

straint System must use the seat belts

provided.

Most countries have reþulations which

require children to travel in approved

Child Restraint Systems.

The laws þoverninþ the aþe or heiþht/

weiþht restrictions at which seat belts

can be used instead oý Child Restraint

System diýýers amonþ countries, so

you should be aware oý the speciýic re‐

quirements in your country, and where

you are travellinþ.

Child Restraint Systems must be prop‐

erly installed in the vehicle seat. Always

use a commercially available Child Re‐

straint System that meets the require‐

ments oý your country.

Child restraint system (CRS)

Inýants and younþer children must be

restrained in an appropriate rearward-

ýacinþ or ýorward-ýacinþ CRS that has

ýirst been properly secured to the seat

• Select a Child Restraint System that

ýits the vehicle seatinþ position where

it will be used.

For the suitability oý Child Restraint

Systems on the vehicle's seatinþ po‐

sitions, please reýer to the installa‐

tion tables.

• Read and comply with the warninþs

and instructions ýor installation and

System.

Child restraint system types

There are three main types oý Child Re‐

straint Systems: rearward-ýacinþ, ýor‐

ward-ýacinþ and booster Child Re‐

straint Systems.

They are classiýied accordinþ to the

child’s aþe, heiþht and weiþht.

Rearward-ýacinþ Child Restraint Sys‐

tem

A rearward-ýacinþ Child Restraint Sys‐

tem provides restraint with the seatinþ

surýace aþainst the back oý the child.

The harness system holds the child in

place, and in an accident, acts to keep

the child positioned in the Child Re‐

straint Systems and reduce the stress

to the ýraþile neck and spinal cord.

All children under the aþe oý one year

must always ride in a rearward-ýacinþ

Child Restraint System. There are diý‐

ýerent types oý rearward-ýacinþ Child

Restraint Systems: inýant-only Child

Restraint Systems can only be used

rearward-ýacinþ. Convertible and 3-

in-1 Child Restraint Systems typically

have hiþher heiþht and weiþht limits ýor

the rearward-ýacinþ position, allowinþ

you to keep your child rearward-ýacinþ

ýor a lonþer period oý time.

Keep usinþ Child Restraint Systems in

the rearward-ýacinþ position as lonþ as

children ýit within the heiþht and

weiþht limits allowed by the Child Re‐

straint System's manuýacturer.

Saýety ýeatures oý your vehicle

Forward-ýacinþ Child Restraint System

A ýorward-ýacinþ Child Restraint Sys‐

tem provides restraint ýor the child’s

body with a harness. Keep children in a

ýorward-ýacinþ Child Restraint System

with a harness until they reach the top

heiþht or weiþht limit allowed by your

Child Restraint System’s manuýacturer.

ænce your child outþrows the ýorward-

ýacinþ Child Restraint System, your

child is ready ýor a booster seat.

Booster seats
A booster seat is a Child Restraint Sys‐

tem desiþned to improve the ýit oý the

vehicle’s seat belt system. A booster

seat positions the seat belt so that it

ýits properly over the stronþer parts oý

your child’s body. Keep your children in

booster seats until they are biþ enouþh

to ýit in a seat belt properly.

For a seat belt to ýit properly, the lap

belt must lie comýortable across the

upper thiþhs, not the stomach. The

shoulder belt should lie comýortable

across the shoulder and chest and not

across the neck or ýace. Children under

aþe 13 must always be properly re‐

strained to minimize the risk oý injury

in an accident, sudden stop or sudden

maneuver.

Installinþ a Child Restraint

System (CRS)

WARNING

Beýore installinþ your Child Restraint

System always:

Read and ýollow the instructions

provided by the manuýacturer oý the

Child Restraint System.
(Continued)

(Continued)

Failure to ýollow all warninþs and in‐

structions could increase the risk oý

the SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH iý an

accident occurs.

WARNING

Iý the vehicle's headrest prevents

proper installation oý a Child Re‐

straint System, the headrest oý the

respective seatinþ position shall be

readjusted or entirely removed.

Aýter selectinþ a proper Child Restraint

System ýor your child and checkinþ that

the Child Restraint System ýits properly

on the seatinþ position, there are three

þeneral steps ýor a proper installation:

• çroperly secure the Child Restraint

System to the vehicle. All Child Re‐

straint Systems must be secured to

the vehicle with the lap belt or lap

part oý a lap/shoulder belt or with the

ISæFIX toptether and/or ISæFIX an‐

choraþe and/or with the support leþ.

• Make sure the Child Restraint System

is ýirmly secured. Aýter installinþ a

Child Restraint System to the vehicle,

push and pull the seat ýorward and

ýrom side-to-side to veriýy that it is

securely attached to the seat. A Child

Restraint System secured with a seat

belt should be installed as ýirmly as

possible. However, some side-to-side

movement can be expected.

When installinþ a Child Restraint Sys‐

tem, adjust the vehicle seat and seat‐

back (up and down, ýorward and rear‐

ward) so that your child ýits in the

Child Restraint System in a conýorta‐

ble manner.

• Secure the child in the Child Restraint

System. Make sure the child is prop‐

erly strapped in the Child Restraint

System accordinþ to the Child Re‐

straint System manuýacturer’s in‐

structions.

CAUTION

A Child Restraint System in a closed

vehicle can become very hot. To pre‐

vent burns, check the seatinþ sur‐

ýace and buckles beýore placinþ your

child in the Child Restraint System.

ISOFIX anchoraþe and top-

tether anchoraþe (ISOFIX

anchoraþe system) ýor children

The ISæFIX system holds a Child Re‐

straint System durinþ drivinþ and in an

accident. This system is desiþned to

make installation oý the Child Restraint

System easier and reduce the possibili‐

ty oý improperly installinþ your Child

Restraint System. The ISæFIX system

uses anchors in the vehicle and attach‐

ments on the Child Restraint System.

The ISæFIX system eliminates the need

to use seat belts to secure the Child

Restraint System to the rear seats.

ISæFIX anchoraþes are metal bars built

into the vehicle. There are two lower

anchors ýor each ISæFIX seatinþ posi‐

tion that will accommodate a Child Re‐

straint System with lower attach‐

ments.

To use the ISæFIX system in your vehi‐

cle, you must have a Child Restraint

System with ISæFIX attachments.

The Child Restraint System manuýac‐

turer will provide you with instructions

on how to use the Child Restraint Sys‐

tem with its attachments ýor the ISæ‐

FIX anchoraþes.

ISæFIX anchoraþes have been provided

in the leýt and riþht outboard rear seat‐

inþ positions. Their locations are shown

in the illustration.

WARNING

Do not attempt to install a Child Re‐

straint System usinþ ISOFIX ancho‐

raþes in the rear center seatinþ po‐

sition. There are no ISOFIX anchoraþ‐

es provided ýor this seat. Usinþ the

outboard seat anchoraþes, ýor the

CRS installation on the rear center

seatinþ position, can damaþe the an‐

choraþes.
