ISOFIX CHILD
RESTRAINT
ASSEMBLY SETUP
This car is preset for mounting the Uni-
versal Isofix child restraint system, a new
European standardised system for carry-
ing children safely.
It is possible to mount at the same time
both the traditional restraint system and
Isofix one. An example of child seat is
shown in fig. 9. The Universal Isofix child’s
seat covers weight group: 1. The other
weight groups are covered by the specif-
ic Isofix child seat, which can be used on-
ly if specifically designed, tested and ho-
mologated for this car (see car list pro-
vided with the child seat).
Due to its different anchoring system, the
child’s seat shall be anchored to the prop-
er lower metal rings A-fig. 10, set be-
tween rear seat back and cushion. After
removing the rear shelf, secure the up-
per belt (provided with the child’s seat) to
ring B-fig. 11set between the rear back-
rest and the boot floor.
Remember that in case of Universal Isofix
child’s seat, you can only use all those
seats approved with the marking ECE
R44/03 “Universal Isofix”.
