Notes on ISOFIX child seat securing systems
&
WARNING Risk of injury or death if the
permissible gross mass of the child and
child restraint system is exceeded
For ISOFIX child restraint systems in which
the child is secured using the integrated seat
belt in the child restraint system, the permis‐
sible gross mass of the child and child
restraint system is 33 kg.
If the child and the child restraint system
together weigh more than 33 kg, the ISOFIX
child restraint system with integrated seat
belt does not offer sufficient protection. An
excessive load may be placed on the ISOFIX
child seat attachments and the child may not
be restrained in the event of an accident, for
example.
#
If the child and the child restraint sys‐
tem together weigh more than 33 kg,
use only an ISOFIX child restraint sys‐
tem that secures the child with the vehi‐
cle 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
on a label on the child restraint system, if
available
Check regularly that the permissible gross mass
of the child plus the child restraint system is not
exceeded.
When fitting a child restraint system, be sure to
observe the manufacturer's installation and oper‐
ating instructions as well as the correct use of
the child restraint system and the suitability of
the seats.
ISOFIX is a standardised securing system for spe‐
cial restraint systems. ISOFIX child restraint sys‐
tems are approved in accordance with UN-R44.
Only child restraint systems that have been
approved in accordance with UN-R44 may be
attached to ISOFIX mounting brackets.
