CHILD SAFETY: General information (1/2)
Carrying children
Children, and adults, must be correctly
seated and strapped in for all journeys.
The children being carried in your vehi-
cle are your responsibility.
A child is not a miniature adult. Children
are at risk of specific injuries as their
muscles and bones have not yet fin-
ished growing. The seat belt alone
would not provide suitable protection.
Use an approved child seat and ensure
you use it correctly.
A collision at 30 mph
(50 km/h) is the same as fall-
ing a distance of 10 metres.
Transporting a child without
a restraint is the equivalent of allow-
ing him or her to play on a fourth-
floor balcony without railings.
Never travel with a child held in your
arms. In the event of an accident,
you will not be able to keep hold of
the child, even if you yourself are
wearing a seat belt.
If your vehicle has been involved in
a road accident, replace the child
seat and have the seat belts and
ISOFIX anchorage points checked.
To prevent the doors being
opened, use the “Child
safety” device (refer to the
information on “Opening
and closing the doors” in Section 1).
Driver’s responsibility
when parking or stopping
the vehicle
Never leave an animal,
child or adult who is not self-suffi-
cient alone on your vehicle, even for
a short time.
They may pose a risk to themselves
or to others by starting the engine,
activating equipment such as the
electric windows or by locking the
doors.
Also, in hot and/or sunny weather,
please remember that the tempera-
ture inside the passenger compart-
ment increases very quickly.
RISK OF DEATH OR SERIOUS
INJURY.

1.37
CHILD SAFETY: choosing a child seat mounting (1/3)
There are two ways of attaching child
seats: via the seat belt or using the
ISOFIX system.
The seat belt must never
be twisted or the tension
relieved. Never pass the
shoulder strap under the
arm or behind the back.
Check that the seat belt has not
been damaged by sharp edges.
If the seat belt does not operate nor-
mally, it will not protect the child.
Consult an approved dealer. Do not
use this seat until the seat belt has
been repaired.
Do not use the child seat
if it may unfasten the seat
belt restraining it: the base
of the seat must not rest on
the buckle and/or catch of the seat
belt.
Attachment via the seat belt
The seat belt must be adjusted to
ensure that it is effective in the event of
harsh braking or an impact.
Ensure that the strap paths indicated
by the child seat manufacturer are re-
spected.
Always check that the seat belt is cor-
rectly fastened by pulling it up, then
pulling it out fully whilst pressing on the
child seat.
Check that the seat is correctly held by
moving it from side to side and back
to front: the seat should remain firmly
fixed.
Check that the child seat has not been
installed at an angle and that it is not
resting against a window.

1.38
Attachment using the ISOFIX
system
Approved child seats ISOFIX are stand-
ardised in accordance with current reg-
ulations if any of the four cases below
applies:
– ISOFIX universal 3-point forward- facing seat;
– ISOFIX semi-universal 2-point seat;
– Specific;
– i-Size Which has:
– either a belt which attaches to the
third ring of the seat concerned;
– or a stay that rests on the vehi-
cle floor, compatible with the ap-
proved seat i-Size, the role of
which is to prevent the child seat
from moving in the event of a col-
lision.
In the latter three cases check that your
child seat can be installed by consulting
the list of compatible vehicles.
No modifications may be
made to the component
parts of the restraint system
(ISOFIX seat belts, seats
and their mountings) originally fitted.
Before using an ISOFIX
child seat that you pur-
chased for another vehicle,
check that its installation is
authorised. Consult the list of ve-
hicles which can be fitted with the
seat from the equipment manufac-
turer.
CHILD SAFETY: choosing a child seat mounting (2/3)
Attach the child seat with the ISOFIX
locks, if these are provided. The ISOFIX
system allows quick, easy, safe fitting.
The ISOFIX system consists of 2 rings
and, in some cases, a third ring.

CHILD SAFETY: choosing a child seat mounting (3/3)
3
The third ring 3 or 4 is used to attach
the upper strap on some seats ISOFIX.
The ISOFIX anchorage points have been exclusively designed for child
seats with the ISOFIX system. Never fit a different type of child seat, seat
belt or other objects to these anchorage points. Check that nothing is o\
b-
structing the anchorage points.
If your vehicle has been involved in a road accident, have the ISOFIX an\
chorage
points checked and replace your child seat.
Attachment using the ISOFIX
system (continued)
The two rings 1 are located between
the seatback and the seat base of the
seat and are identified by a marking.
To ensure your child seat can be easily
fitted and locked on the rings 1, use
access guides 2 on the child seat. The rings are located on the rear seat-
backs and indicated by the symbol
.
In all cases, attach the strap hook to the
corresponding ring 3 or 4 and place the
seat in the desired position.
Pull the belt so that the back of the child
seat comes into contact with the back
of the vehicle seat.
The child seat strap must
be attached to the corre-
sponding ring.
Do not use any other
mounting point.

2
Check that the seatback
of the forward-facing child
seat is in contact with the
seatback of the vehicle
seat. In this case, the child seat may
not always rest on the seat base of
the vehicle seat.

Child seat fitted using the ISOFIX
mounting
 Seat which allows an ISOFIX
child seat to be fitted.
± The rear seats are fitted with
an anchorage point which allows a
forward-facing ISOFIX child seat with
universal approval to be attached. The
anchorage points are located on the
backs of the rear seats.
The size of the ISOFIX child seat is in-
dicated by a letter:
– A, B and B1: for forward-facing seats in group 1 (9 to 18 kg);
– C and D: shell seat or rear-facing seats in group 0+ (less than 13 kg)
or group 1 (9 to 18 kg);
– E: rear-facing shell seats in group 0 (less than 10 kg) or 0+ (less than
13 kg);
– F and G: cots in group 0 (less than 10 kg).
Using a child safety system
which is not approved for
this vehicle will not correctly
protect the baby or child.
They risk serious or even fatal injury.

child seat to be fitted.

X = Seat not suitable for fitting child seats ISOFIX.
IUF/IL = On equipped vehicles, seat which allows an approved “Universal/semi-u\
niversal” or “vehicle specific” child seat to be at-
tached using the ISOFIX system; check that it can be fitted.
i-U = Suitable for the i-Size restraint devices in the “universal” forwa\
rd-facing and backward-facing category.
(1) If necessary, position the vehicle seat as far back as possible. Move the front seat\
as far forward as possible to install a re ar-
facing child seat, then move back the seat in front as far as it will go\
, although without allowing it to come into contact with the
child seat.
(2) In all situations, remove the rear headrest of the seat on which the chi\
ld seat is positioned. This must be done before fitting the
child seat. Please refer to the information on the “Rear headrests”\
in Section 3. Move the seat in front of the child forwards,
move the seatback forward to avoid contact between the seat and the chil\
d’s legs.
