PRESETTING FOR
MOUNTING THE
“ISOFIX TYPE”
CHILD RESTRAINT
SYSTEM
This car is preset for mounting the Isofix
type child restraint system, a new Euro-
pean standardised system for carrying chil-
dren safely. Isofix child restraint system
is an additional option that does not pre-
vent from using traditional child restraint
systems. Isofix type child restraint system
covers three groups: 0, 0+ and 1.
Due to its different anchoring system, the
Isofix type child restraint system shall be
anchored to the proper metal rings set be-
tween rear seat back and cushion A-
fig. 13or in the rear seat cover B-fig. 14
(according to versions).
It is possible to mount both the traditional
restraint system and the Isofix type one,
one on the left and the other on the right,
for example.
Since sizes are different, on the rear seats
it is possible to install max. two Isofix type
seats using the proper couplings or max.
three traditional child’s seats using the seat
belts. On the front passenger seat it is pos-
sible to mount only traditional child’s
seats.Lineaccessori Fiat provides the “Kiddy
Isofix” seat, certified according to Euro-
pean Standard ECE-R44/03, for babies up
to 13 kg weight to be positioned facing
backwards (groups 0 and 0+) and for ba-
bies from 9 to 18 kg weight that is to be
positioned facing the running direction
(group 1). Remember that in case of Isofix
type seats, you can only use those seats
designed, tested and approved for this car.
fig. 13F0C0274mfig. 14F0C0273m
Mount the child restraint
system only with the car sta-
tionary. The Isofix child restraint sys-
tem is properly anchored to the
mounting brackets when clicks are
heard. In any case, keep to the in-
stallation instructions that must be
provided by the child restraint system
Manufacturer.

FITTING THE ISOFIX TYPE SEAT
Groups 0 and 0+
For children of the 0, 0+ weight group (ba-
bies up to 13 kg), the child’s seat is facing
backwards and the child is restrained by
the child’s seat belts D-fig. 15.
As the child grows, passing to weight
group 1 (9-18 kg) refit it facing forwards
following the instructions provided with
the child restraint system.For proper mounting proceed as follows:
❒move the rear sliding seat fully back-
wards with the seat back at 4thposition,
as shown in fig. 16.
❒check whether the release lever B-
fig. 15is at rest position (inward);
❒find the presetting brackets A, then po-
sition the child restraint system with
the fastening devices Caligned with the
brackets;
❒push the child restraint system until
hearing locking clicks;
❒check proper locking by moving the
child’s seat with force: the built-in safe-
ty mechanism actually inhibits improp-
er coupling with only one coupling
locked.
fig. 16F0C0312m
fig. 15F0C0268m
In case of rear fixed seat and
if the Isofix type restraint
system is set facing backwards, the
passenger’s seat will have to be pulled
back until it touches the seat restraint
system back. In case of rear sliding
seat, move the front seat forward to
a position from half its stroke forth.
