O When using a weight category I forward-
facing child restraint system: remove the
head restraint from the respective seat, if
possible.
After the child restraint system has been
removed, replace the head restraints again
immediately and adjust them correctly.
O The backrest of the forward-facing child
restraint system must, as far as possible, be
resting on the seat backrest of the rear
seat.
O If the head restraint of the child seat cannot
be fully extended when it is installed in the
vehicle, this will result in restrictions on the
maximum size setting for child restraint sys‐
tems in weight category II or III.
Contact with the roof when the head
restraint is fully extended and locked in
place will not result in any restrictions on
use.
O The child restraint system must not be put
under strain between the roof and the seat
cushion and/or be fitted facing the wrong
direction. Where possible, adjust the seat
cushion inclination accordingly.
O The child restraint system must not be put
under strain by the head restraint. Adjust
the head restraints as appropriate.
O Make sure that the child's feet do not touch
the front seat. If necessary, move the front
seat slightly forwards.
#

Always make sure that the shoulder belt
strap is correctly routed from the seat belt
outlet of the vehicle to the shoulder belt
guide on the child restraint system.
The shoulder belt strap must be routed for‐
wards and downwards from the seat belt out‐
let.
