ISOFIX fixture system for child seats
Mounting points for the ISOFIX fixture system
are concealed behind the lower section of the
rear seat backrest, in the outer seats.
The location of the mounting points is indicated
by symbols in the backrest upholstery (see pre-
ceding illustration).
Press the seat cushion down to access the
mounting points.
NOTE
The ISOFIX fixture system is an accessory
for the passenger seat.
Always follow the manufacturer's installation
instructions when connecting a child seat to
the ISOFIX mounting points.
Upper mounting points for child seats
The car is equipped with upper mounting
points for child seats. These mounting points
are located on the parcel shelf and are con-
cealed by plastic covers. Bend aside the plas-
tic covers to access each respective mounting
point.
For cars with folding head restraints on the
outside seats the head restraints should be
folded to facilitate installation.
The upper mounting points are primarily
intended for use with front-facing child seats.
Volvo recommends that small children should
sit in rear-facing child seats for as long as pos-
sible.
For detailed information on how the child seat
should be tensioned in the upper mounting
points, see the seat manufacturer's instruc-
tions.
WARNING
The child seat's straps must always be
drawn through the hole in the head restraint
leg before they are tensioned at the attach-
ment point.
