SAFETY
Below is a summary of the rules
of safety to be followed for
carrying children:
❒The recommended position for in-
stalling child’s seat is on the rear
seat, as it is the most protected in
the case of a crash.
❒If the passenger’s air bag is deac-
tivated always check the amber
warning light “on the cluster to
make sure that it has actually been
deactivated.
❒Carefully follow the instructions
supplied with the child restraint
system which are mandatory by
law. Keep the instructions in the
car along with the other papers
and this handbook. Do not use
child seats without instructions.
❒Always check the seat belt is well
fastened by pulling the webbing.❒Only one child is to be strapped to
each retaining system.
❒Always check the seat belts do not
fit around the child’s throat.
❒While travelling, do not let the
child sit incorrectly or release the
belts.
❒Never carry children on your lap,
even newborns. No-one, however
strong, can hold a child in the case
of an accident.
❒In case of an accident, replace the
child’s seat with a new one. “UNIVERSAL
ISOFIX” CHILD
RESTRAINT
ASSEMBLY SETUP
(for versions/markets, where provided)
The car is provisioned for a Universal
Isofix child restraint, a new European
standardised system for carrying chil-
dren safely.
An example of such a seat is shown in
fig. 14.
The Universal Isofix child seat covers
weight group 1.
Never arrange a child re-
straint seat on the front
seat in presence of a passenger
airbag because children must never
travel on the front seat.

Due to its different anchoring system,
an Isofix child restraint must be an-
chored to the proper lower metal rings
A-fig. 15, between rear seat back and
cushion. The upper belt (provided
with the child restrain) must be then
secured to ring D-fig. 16set in the
boot at child’s seat level.
fig. 15L0C0140m
It is possible to have a mixed assem-
bly of the traditional child seats and
the Universal Isofix ones.
Remember that in case of Universal
Isofix child restrain systems, you can
only use all those seats approved with
the marking ECE R44/03 “Universal
Isofix”.
The Universal Isofix “Duo Plus” child
seat and the special “G 0/1” seat are
available from Lineaccessori Lancia.
For any further details on installa-
tion/use, refer to the instruction man-
ual for the child seat.
fig. 16L0C0143m
Fit the child seat when the
car is stationary. The
child seat is correctly anchored to
the brackets when you hear the
click. Follow the instructions for
assembly, disassembly and posi-
tioning that the manufacturer mu
st supply with the child seat.
