WARNING
A child seat should never be used in the front passenger seat of any vehicle with a front passenger airbag - not even
if the "Passenger airbag off" symbol near the rear-view mirror is illuminated (on vehicles equipped with Occupant
Weight Sensor). If the severity of an accident were to cause the airbag to inflate, this could lead to serious injury or
death to a child seated in this position.

Lower anchors for ISOFIX-equipped child seats are located in both rear seating positions, hidden below the backrest
cushions. Symbols on the seat back upholstery mark the anchor positions (see the illustration).
To access the anchors:
1. Put the child restraint in position.
2. Kneel on the child restraint to press down the seat cushion and locate the anchors by feel.
3. Fasten the attachment on the child restraint's lower straps to the ISOFIX lower anchors.
4. Firmly tension the lower child seat straps according to the manufacturer's instructions.
NOTE
Always follow your child seat manufacturer's installation instructions, and use both ISOFIX lower anchors and top
tethers whenever possible.
WARNING
Be sure to fasten the attachment correctly to the anchor (see the illustration). If the attachment is not correctly
fastened, the child restraint may not be properly secured in the event of a collision.
The ISOFIX lower child restraint anchors are only intended for use with child seats positioned in the left or right
seating positions.
Child seats should never be placed in the center of the rear seat. This area is not intended to be seating position
and is not equipped with a seat belt or ISOFIX anchors.
