the child may not be restrained correctly in
the event of an accident, for example.

tem together weigh more than 33 kg,

restraint system with which the child is
secured with the vehicle seat belt.

Also secure the child restraint system
with the Top Tether belt, if available.
Always comply with the information about the
mass of the child restraint system:
R
in the manufacturer's installation and operat‐
ing instructions for the child restraint system
used
R

O
Always comply with the manufacturer's
installation and operating instructions for
the child restraint system used.
O
Make sure that the child's feet do not touch
the front seat. If necessary, move the front
seat forward slightly.
When fitting an ISOFIX child restraint sys‐
tem, observe the following:
O
When using a Group 0/0+ baby car seat
or a Group I rearward-facing child
restraint system on a rear seat: adjust
the front seat so that the seat does not
touch the child restraint system.
O
When using a Group I forward-facing
child restraint system: remove the head
restraint from the respective seat, if possi‐
ble. In addition, the seat backrest of the
child restraint system must, as far as possi‐
ble, lie flat against the backrest of the vehi‐
cle seat.
When you remove the child restraint sys‐
tem, install the head restraint again immedi‐
ately and adjust all the head restraints cor‐
rectly.
O For certain child restraint systems in weight
group 2 or 3, there may be restrictions in
the maximum size setting, e.g. due to possi‐
ble contact with the roof.
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.
