on the front passenger's seat.The following alternatives are available for safely securing a child
safety seat on the rear seats and on the front passenger's seat.•
Child safety seats of the categories 0 to 3 can be secured with the
standard three-point seat belts.

system can be secured without seat belts using the “ISOFIX”

possible or adapted to the child safety seat as required, and the
seat height must be adjusted to its highest position.
The front passenger's airbag must be deactivated if a rearward-
facing child seat is used.

seat, the front passenger's airbag must be deactivated before-
hand. Please refer to the chapter “Deactivating airbags”.
