INSTALLING AN ISOFIX
CHILD RESTRAINT
SYSTEM
100) 101) 102) 103) 104)
The car is equipped with ISOFIX
anchorages (European standard which
makes the installation of the seats
quick and safe), on the rear seats and
on the front passenger seat.
The ISOFIX system lets you install the
ISOFIX child restraint system without
using the car seat belts but connecting
them directly to the car seat with three
anchorages in the car.
Traditional child restraint systems
can be fitted alongside ISOFIX child
restraint systems on different seats in
the same car.
To install an ISOFIX child restraint
system, attach it to the two metal
anchorages (A) fig. 120 located in the
back of the passenger front seat and
of the rear seats indicated by the
symbol in the point where the seat
cushion meets the backrest, remove
the parcel shelf and fix the upper
strap (provided with the child restraint
system) to the dedicated anchoring (B)
fig. 121 located at the bottom of the
seat back.
fig. 122 shows an example of a
Universal ISOFIX child restraint system
for weight group 1.
