“UNIVERSAL 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.
An example of child seat is shown as an
example in fig. 11.
The Universal Isofix child’s seat covers
weight group: 1.
Due to its different anchoring system, the
Universal Isofix child’s seat shall be an-
chored to the proper lower metal rings
A-fig. 12, set between rear seat back and
cushion. The upper belt (provided with
the child’s seat) shall be then secured to
ring B-fig. 13set in the boot at child’s seat
level.
It is possible to mount at the same time
both the traditional restraint system and
the “Universal Isofix” one.
Remember that in case of Universal Isofix
child’s seat, you can only use all those
seats approved with the marking EEC
R44/03 “Universal Isofix”.

FRONT AIRBAGS
The car is provided with front airbags for
the driver and the passenger.
The front driver / passenger air bags have
been designed to protect the occupants in
the event of head-on crashes of medium-
high severity, by placing the cushion be-
tween the occupant and the steering
wheel or dashboard.
Front air bags are designed to protect
car’s occupants in front crashes and there-
fore non-activation in other types of col-
lisions (side collisions, rear shunts, roll-
overs, etc.) is not a system malfunction.
An electronic control unit will make the
bag inflate in the event of a frontal crash.
The bag will inflate instantaneously placing
itself between the front occupant’s body
and the structures which could cause in-
jury. It will deflate immediately afterwards.
Driver and passenger front airbags are not
a replacement of but complementary to
the belts, which you are recommended to
always wear, as specified by law in Europe
and most non-European countries.
The volume of front air bags at max. in-
flation fills most of the space between the
steering wheel and the driver and between
the dashboard and the passenger.
