A statement by the child restraint manu-
facturer of compliance with this standard
can be found on the instruction label on
the restraint and in the instruction manual
provided with the restraint.
When using any infant or child restraint
system, make sure to carefully read and
follow all manufacturer’s instructions for
installation and use.
Please read and observe warning labels af-
fixed to inside of vehicle and to infant or
child restraints.Passenger sun visor with warning stickerWarning symbol for rearward-facing child

ISOFIX child seat securing system/
Child seat anchors - LATCH type
ISOFIX is a standardized securing system
on the rear seats for special LATCH (Lower
Anchors and Tethers for Children) child re-
straint systems with matching mounting
fittings.
The LATCH type anchors for child restraint
systems are installed between the seat
cushion and the backrest:
\4on the outside left and right on narrow
rear bench seats with 3 seats\4on the outside left on rear bench seats
with 2 seats
N00.00-2620-31
iNon-LATCH type child seats may also
be used and can installed using the ve-
hicle’s seat belt system. Install child
seat according to manufacturer’s in-
structions.Warning
G
A LATCH type child restraint system that has
been secured using the ISOFIX child seat se-
curing system is unable to provide adequate
protection for children who weigh more than
48 lbs (22 kg). For this reason, only secure
children weighing less than 48 lbs (22 kg) in
a LATCH type child restraint system secured
using the ISOFIX child seat securing system.
If the child weighs more than 48 lbs (22 kg),
you should secure the LATCH type child re-
straint system with a lap-shoulder belt.

Warning
G
If the child restraint system has not been in-
stalled correctly on a suitable vehicle seat,
the child cannot be restrained in the event
of an accident or sudden braking and could
be seriously or fatally injured. You must
therefore observe the installation instruc-
tions issued by the child restraint system
manufacturer when installing a child re-
straint system.
On the rear bench seat, only use LATCH type
child restraint systems with ISOFIX child
seat mountings that have been recommend-
ed by the manufacturer.
An incorrectly installed child restraint sys-
tem could come loose and the child or other
vehicle occupants could be fatally injured.
You must therefore make sure that the child
restraint system is engaged in the securing
rings on the left and right-hand sides after it
has been installed.
Warning
G
If the child restraint system or its securing
system, for example the ISOFIX child seat
securing system, are damaged or have been
subjected to a load in an accident, the child
secured in it could suffer severe or fatal in-
juries in the event of an accident, heavy
braking or a sudden change of direction.
For this reason, have restraint systems and
their mountings checked immediately and
replaced if necessary at a qualified special-
ist workshop which has the necessary spe-
cialist knowledge and tools to carry out the
work required if they are damaged or have
been subjected to a load in an accident.
The manufacturer recommends that you use
an authorized Sprinter Dealer for this pur-
pose. In particular, work relevant to safety
or on safety-related systems must be car-
ried out at a qualified specialist workshop.
!
CAUTION
Take care not to trap the seat belt on
the middle seat when you install the
child restraint system.
Warning
G
Do not leave children unsupervised in the
vehicle, even if they are secured by a child
restraint system. The children could:
\4injure themselves on parts of the vehicle
\4be seriously or even fatally injured by
prolonged exposure to extreme heat or
cold
