SUITABILITY OF
PASSENGER SEATS FOR
i-SIZE CHILD RESTRAINT
SYSTEM USE
(for versions/markets, where provided)
These child restraint systems, built
and type-approved according to the
i-Size (ECE R129) standard, ensure
better safety conditions to carry
children on board a vehicle:
the child must be transported
rearward facing until 15 months;
child restraint system protection is
increased in the event of a side
collision;
the use of the ISOFIX system is
promoted to avoid faulty installation of
the child restraint system;
efficiency in the choice of the child
restraint system, which isn't made
according to weight any more
but according to the child's height, is
increased;
compatibility between the vehicle
seats and the child restraint systems is
better: the i-Size child restraint systems
can be considered as "Super ISOFIX";
this means that they can be perfectly
fitted in type-approved i-Size seats, but
can also be fitted in ISOFIX (ECE R44)
type-approved seats.
NOTE: See the table shown on the
following page to check whether your
car is approved for installing i-Size child
restraint systems.
