Zealand: child seat
mountings, ISOFIX
When you are fitting and using ISOFIX

effect can be diminished.

Correct ISOFIX child restraint systems
The following ISOFIX child restraint systems can
be used on the specified seats in your vehicle.
The corresponding classes are indicated on the
child seats themselves.
Depending on the size of the child restraint sys-
tem, if necessary slide the headrest upwards and
adjust the longitudinal setting of the front seat,
see page
33 .
Brackets for lower ISOFIX mountings
Before fitting the child seat, pull the belt away
from the area around the child seat mountings.
The mountings for the lower ISOFIX anchorages
are at the points marked by the arrows.
Make sure that the two lower ISOFIX
anchors are correctly locked and that the
child restraint system is positioned fully against
the backrest, otherwise its protective function
may be impaired.
<
Mounting point for upper ISOFIX
retaining strap
Use the attachment points for the upper
ISOFIX retaining strap only for securing
child restraint systems, otherwise the attach-
ment points could be damaged.
<
For ISOFIX child restraint systems with an upper
retaining strap there are two additional mount-
ing points, arrows.
Positioning the upper ISOFIX retaining
strap
Make sure that the upper retaining strap
does not pass over sharp edges and is not
twisted on its path to the upper mounting point.
Otherwise the child restraint system cannot pro-
tect the child as intended in the event of an acci-
dent.
