Child restraint systems
with tether strap
Safety information
Warning
If the upper retaining strap is incorrectly used
for the child restraint system, the protective ef‐
fect is reduced. There is a risk of injury. Make
sure that the upper retaining strap does not run
over sharp edges and is not twisted as it
passes the upper anchor.
Warning
If the rear backrest is not locked, the protective
effect of the child restraint system is limited or
there is none. In certain situations, for instance
braking maneuvers or in case of an accident,
the rear backrest can fold forward. There is a
risk of injury or danger to life. Make sure that
the rear backrests are locked.
Warning
The attachment points for child restraint sys‐
tems in the vehicle are intended for attaching
child restraint systems only. When other ob‐
jects are mounted, the attachment points can
be damaged. There is a risk of injury or risk of
damage to property. Attach only child restraint
systems at the corresponding attachment
points.
