When using a Group 0/0+ baby car seat
and 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: the backrest of the
child restraint system must lie as flat as
possible against the backrest of the vehicle
seat.
O For certain child restraint systems in weight
group II or III, there may be restrictions on
the maximum size setting, e.g. due to possi‐

O The child restraint system must not be
installed between the roof and the seat
cushion and/or be installed facing the
wrong direction. Where possible, adjust the
seat cushion inclination accordingly.
O The child restraint system must not be put

restraint system attached with LATCH-
type (ISOFIX) and the vehicle.
