•
Never install a child seat facing backwards (or rear-facing) on the front
passenger seat unless the front passenger airbag has been disabled. This
represents a risk of potentially fatal injuries to the child! If it is necessary
in exceptional cases to transport a child on the front passenger seat, you
must always disable the front passenger airbag

page 44, “Deactivating
airbags*”.

Read and always observe information and warnings concerning the use
of child seats

in “Safety notes on using child seats” on page 47.
Securing child seat with the “ISOFIX” system
Child seats can be secured quickly, easily and safely on the
rear outer seats using the “ISOFIX” system.
When removing or fitting the child seat, please be sure to follow the
manufacturer's instructions.
– Press the child seat onto the “ISOFIX” retaining rings until the
child seat can be heard to engage securely.
– Pull on both sides of the child seat to ensure that it is secure.
Two “ISOFIX” retaining rings are fitted to each outside rear seat and the front
passenger seat*. The “ISOFIX” retaining rings on the rear seats are attached
to the body of the car.
The “ISOFIX” system retaining rings may be found in the allotments on the
seat.
Child seats with “ISOFIX” mountings are available from the Authorised
Service Centres.
WARNING
•
The retaining rings are designed only for use with “ISOFIX” child seats.
•
Never secure child seats without the “ISOFIX” system, retaining belts
or objects to the fastening rings – this can result in potentially fatal injuries
to the child!
•
Ensure that child seats are correctly fitted to the “ISOFIX” retaining
rings.
