Suitability of the seats for attaching an i-Size child restraint system
If you use a baby car seat of category 0 or 0+ or a rearward-facing child restraint system of category
I on a rear seat, you must adjust the driver's or front-passenger seat so that the seat does not touch
the child restraint system.
If you use a category I, forward-facing child restraint system, you should remove the head restraint
from the respective seat, if possible (
Y
page 106). The backrest of the child restraint system must,
as far as possible, lie flat against the backrest of the seat.
Always observe the notes in the "Child restraint system" section (
Y
page 56) and the child restraint
system manufacturer's installation instructions.
Make sure that the child's feet do not touch the front seat. If necessary, move the front seat forward
slightly.
When you remove the child restraint system you must replace the head restraints again immediately
(
Y
page 106). All vehicle occupants must adjust their head restraints correctly before beginning the
journey.
