ISOFIX child seats approved for rear seats
The rear seats are suitable for child seats with the ISOFIX system specially
designed for this type of vehicle in accordance with regulation ECE-R 44.
ISOFIX child seats are divided into “specific categories for the vehicle”,
“limited” or “semi-universal”.
Child seat manufacturers supply a list of vehicles with each ISOFIX seat,
which includes the models for which the ISOFIX child seat in question is
approved. If the vehicle is included in the manufacturer's list and the ISOFIX
child seat belongs to a seat category included in the list, then it can be used
in your vehicle. If necessary, contact the child seat manufacturer for an
updated list of vehicles.
WARNING
If child seats are fitted to all the seats in the second row then it is possible
that the seats of this row cannot be folded down from the third row of seats
in case of an accident. In case of an emergency, passengers in the third row
of seats will not be able to leave the vehicle or to help themselves.
xChild seats should not occupy all the seats of the second row if other
passengers are to occupy the third row of seats.
