PRESETTING FOR
MOUNTING THE “ISOFIX TYPE” CHILD
RESTRAINT SYSTEM (where provided)
This car is created preset for mounting the Isofix type child restraint
system. “Isofix” is a European standardised system for mounting
child restraints. Isofix type child restraint system is an additional
option that does not prevent from using traditional child restraint
systems. The Isofix type child’s seat covers three weight groups: 0,0+
and 1.
Due to its different anchoring system, the Isofix type child’s seat shall
be anchored to the proper metal brackets set between rear seat back
and cushion, which can be identified by the slots in the seat cover A.
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, it is possible to install max two traditional
child’s seats on the rear side seats secured by seat belts. Only
traditional child’s seats can be installed on front seat.
These child’s seats are recommended since they have been designed
and experimented expressly for this car.

GROUP 1
For proper mounting proceed as follows:
❒check whether the release lever B is at rest position (inward);
❒find the presetting brackets A, then position the child restraint
system with the fastening devices C aligned with the brackets;
❒push the child restraint system until hearing locking clicks;
❒for seats positioned facing the running direction, hook the upper
belt (in the upper child's seat pocket) to the ring D located on the
rear seat back;
❒check proper locking by moving the child’s seat with force: the
built-in safety mechanism actually inhibit improper coupling with
only one coupling locked.
With this configuration, the child is secured also by the car seat belts
and by the upper belt. To apply car seat belts to child’s seat refer to
the child’s seat handbook.

INSTALLING THE TOW HOOK
The towing device should be fastened to the body
by specialised personnel according to any additional
and/or integrative information supplied by the
Manufacturer of the device.
The towing device must meet current regulations
with reference to 94/20/EC Directive and
subsequent amendments.
For any version the towing device used must match
the towable weight of the vehicle on which it is to
be installed.
For the electric connection a unified connector
should be used which is generally placed on a
special bracket normally fastened to the towing
device, and a special ECU for external trailer light
control shall be installed on the car. For the electrical connection 7 or 13 pins 12VDC
connection is to be used (CUNA/UNI and ISO/DIN
Standards). Follow the instructions provided by the
car manufacturer and/or the tow hitch
manufacturer.
An electric brake should be supplied directly by the
battery through a cable with a cross section of no
less than 2.5 mm
2.
IMPORTANT Electric brake or other device shall be
used with running engine.
In addition to the electrical branches, the car’s
electric system can only be connected to the supply
cable for an electric brake and to the cable for an
internal light, though not above 15W.
For connections use a preset control unit with
battery cable no less than 2.5 mm
