Proper transport of children
33
Do not allow the child to assume
incorrect positions or undo the seat
belt /child seat safety harness during
travel.
Do not carry children in your arms,
even new born children. Nobody,
however strong, can hold on to a child
in the event of a collision.
After an accident, always replace the
child seat with a new one.
The vehicle is designed for mounting
child seats with top anchoring.
To fit the child seat, run the belt A
through the support pins of the
headrest and anchor it on one side to
the backrest of the child seat and on
the other side to the bracket B on the
car body. This anchoring point can be easily
identified thanks to the logo found on
the Isofix bracket covering cap shown
below:
Then anchor the base of the child seat
to the brackets C.
Latch system
The rear side seats of the vehicle are
equipped with anchoring points for
Latch system child seats. This is a new
system complying with applicable
standards for carrying children.
This system offers a special anchoring
system for child seats, which uses two
metal brackets C positioned between
the seat cushion and backrest.
These metal brackets are easily
identifiable through the label bearing
the logo shown below.
The seats designed for Latch system
child seats installation can however be
fitted with standard child seats; you
can install a standard and an Latch
system child seat at the same time (one
in each outer rear seat).
No more than two standard child seats
or two Latch system type child seats
can be installed on the rear seats.
Only standard type child seats can be
mounted on the front passenger seat.
Fit the child seat only when
the vehicle is stationary. The
child seat is correctly anchored
to the provided brackets when a click
indicates it is locked in place. Follow
the mounting, removal and
positioning instructions provided by
the child seat manufacturer.
