CHILD SAFETY
2
Fitting a child seat: General infor-
mation
Some seats are not suitable for fit-
ting child seats. The following dia-
grams show you how to attach a
child seat.
The types of child seats indicated
may not be available. Before using a
different child seat, check with the
manufacturer that it can be fitted.
Fit the child seat in rear
seat Left Side.
Check that when in-
stalling the child seat in
the vehicle it is not at risk of
coming loose from its base.
If you have to remove the head-
rest, check that it is correctly
stored so that it does not come
loose under harsh braking or im-
pact.
Always attach the child seat to
the vehicle even if it is not in use
so that it does not come loose
under harsh braking or impact.
In the rear side seat
A carrycot can be installed across
the vehicle and will take up at least
two seats. Position the child with his
or her feet nearest the door. Move
the front seat as far forward as pos-
sible to install a rear-facing child
seat, then move back the seat in
front as far as it will go, although
without allowing it to come into con-
tact with the child seat.
For the safety of the child in the for-
ward-facing seat,
– move the seat in front of the child
forwards, and set the position of the
seatback to avoid contact between
the seat and the child’s legs.
Check that the child seat is resting
against the back of the rear seat.
Ensure that the child
seat or the child’s feet
do not prevent the
front seat from locking
correctly 🡺26 .
IMPORTANT
Since front passenger
airbag triggering and
the position of a rear-
facing child seat are incompati-
ble, NEVER use a rear-facing
child restraint on a seat with an
airbag.
The airbag could cause SERI-
OUS OR FATAL INJURY if inflat-
ed.
