INSTALLING AN ISOFIX
CHILD CARSEAT
86) 87) 88) 89) 90)
The vehicle is equipped with ISOFIX
anchorages, a new standard which
makes fitting a child restraint system
quick, simple and safe.
The ISOFIX system lets you install the
ISOFIX child restraining system without
using the car seat belts but connecting
them directly to the carseat with three
anchors in the car. Traditional child
restraint systems can be fitted
alongside ISOFIX child restraint systems
on different seats in the same vehicle.
To install an ISOFIX child restraint
system, attach it to the two metal
anchor points 1 fig. 61 located where
the rear seat cushion meets the
backrest, then remove the parcel shelf
and fix the upper strap (available
together with the restraint system) to
the anchor point 2 fig. 62 located at the
bottom behind the backrest.
IMPORTANT The central rear seat is
not approved for any type of Isofix child
restraint system.
As an example, fig. 63 shows an
example of a Universal Isofix child
restraint system for weight group 1.
WARNING The figure is indicative and
for assembly purposes only. Fit the
child restraint system according to the
instructions, which must be included.
NOTE When a Universal ISOFIX child
restraint system is used, only ECE R44
"ISOFIX Universal" (R44/03) type-
approved child restraint systems can be
used
The other weight groups are covered
by specific Isofix child restraint systems,
which can be used only if specifically
tested for this car (see list of cars
provided with the child restraint
system). The Universal Isofix "Duo Plus"
child restraint system and the special
"G 0/1" (or further upgrades) system
are available from Lineaccessori Abarth.
For any further details on installation/
use, refer to the instruction manual for
the child restraint system.
