Fitting an ISOFIX or an i-Size child
restraint system
WARNING Risk of injury or death if
the weight of the child exceeds the
permissible gross mass
For ISOFIX/i-Size child restraint systems
in which the child is secured using the
seat belt integrated in the child re-
straint system, the weight of the child
shall not exceed the permissible gross
mass of the child restraint system.
If the child weighs more than the per-
missible gross mass, the ISOFIX/i-Size
child restraint system with integrated
seat belt does not offer sufficient pro-
tection. Too much load may be placed
on the ISOFIX/i-Size child seat and the
child may not be restrained correctly in
the event of an accident, for example.
► If the child weighs more than the
permissible gross mass, the ISOFIX/i-
Size child restraint system and the
vehicle seat belt must be used
together.
► Also secure the child restraint sys-
tem with the TOP TETHER belt, if
available.
Always observe the following child
restraint system instructions regarding
the weight:
● In the manufacturer's installation and
operating instructions for the child re-
straint system used.
● On the label of the child restraint sys-
tem, if present.
Regularly check the weight of the child
and make sure it is still complied with the
permissible gross weight of the child re-
straint system.
Before every trip, make sure that the ISO-
FIX/i-Size child restraint system is en-
gaged correctly in both anchor points in
the vehicle.
NOTE When installing a child re-
straint system, be careful not to
damage the seat belt.
► Make sure the seat belt is not
caught.
Attach the ISOFIX/i-Size child restraint
system to both anchor points in the
vehicle.
