Do not place a cradle seat facing
backwards on the front seat if the
passenger side airbag is on. Deployment of the
airbag in an accident could cause fatal injuries
to the baby regardless of the severity of the
collision. It is advisable to always carry children
in dedicated child seats on the rear seat, which
is the most protected position in the event of an
accident.
WARNING
WARNING Should it be absolutely
necessary to carry a child on the front
seat in a backwards-facing child seat, the
passenger’s front and side airbags should
be deactivated through the setup menu.
Deactivation can be verified by checking the “
warning light on the instrument panel. Move the
passenger’s seat as far back as possible to avoid
contact between the child seat and the dashboard.
WARNING
The figures are only examples for fitting
purposes. Fit the child seat according to
the instructions mandatorily supplied with the
seat.
WARNING
There are seats with Isofix attachments
which enable secure fastening to the
seat without using the vehicle’s seat belts.

“UNIVERSAL ISOFIX” CHILD
RESTRAINT ASSEMBLY SETUP
The car can be fitted with a Universal Isofix child
restraint, a new European standardised system for
carrying children safely.
An example of a child seat is shown in fig. 116.
The Universal Isofix child seat covers weight group 1.
Due to its different attachment system, the Universal
Isofix child seat must be anchored to the special lower
metal rings A-fig. 117, located between the backrest and
rear cushion. The upper belt (provided with the child
seat) must then be secured to ring B-fig. 118 located on
the back of the backrest at child seat level.
It is possible to have a mixed assembly of traditional
child seats and Universal Isofix seats.
F0U116Abfig. 116
Remember that in the case of Universal Isofix child’s
seat, you can use all seats approved with the marking
ECE R44/03 “Universal Isofix”.
