Attaching the child restraint system with
LATCH-type (ISOFIX) to the rear seat
Installing a LATCH-type (ISOFIX) child
restraint system on the rear seat
&
WARNING Risk of injury or death if the
permissible gross mass of the child and
child restraint system is exceeded
For LATCH-type (ISOFIX) child restraint sys‐
tems in which the child is secured using the
integrated seat belt in the child restraint sys‐
tem, the permissible gross mass of the child
and child restraint system is 73 lb (33 kg).
If the child and the child restraint system
together weigh more than 73 lb (33 kg), the
LATCH-type (ISOFIX) child restraint system
with integrated seat belt does not offer suffi‐
cient protection. An excessive load may be
placed on the LATCH-type (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 73 lb
(33 kg), use only a LATCH-type (ISOFIX)
child restraint system that secures the
child 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
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 installing a child restraint system, observe
the following:
O Always observe the correct use and suitabil‐
ity of the seats for attaching a child restraint
system.
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 slightly forwards.
® When installing a LATCH-type (ISOFIX) child
restraint system, also observe the following:
O When using a category 0/0+ baby car
seat and a category I rearward-facing
child restraint system on a rear seat: the
rear seat must be installed in the direction of
travel. Adjust the rear seat and/or front seat
so that the front seat does not touch the
child restraint system.
O
When using a category I forward-facing
child restraint system: the backrest of the
child restraint system must, as far as possi‐
ble, lie flat against the backrest of the vehi‐
cle seat.
O
For certain child restraint systems of weight
category II or III, there may be limitations for
the maximum size setting, e.g. due to possi‐
ble contact with the roof.
O The child restraint system must not be trap‐
ped between the roof and the seat and/or
twisted when installed.
O The child restraint system must not be put
under strain by the head restraints. Adjust
the head restraints as appropriate.
