“ISOFIX” CHILD RESTRAINT
SYSTEM SETUP The car is equipped with ISOFIX anchorages, a new stan-
dard which makes fitting a child restraint system quick,
simple and safe.
It is possible to fit a mix of
traditional and Isofix child restraint systems on different
seats in the same car.
An example of a Universal Isofix child restraint system for
weight group 1 is shown in fig. 10.The other weight groups are covered by specific Isofix child
restraint systems, which can be used only if specifically
tested for this car (see list of cars provided wi
th the child
restraint system).

Fit the child restraint system when the car
is stationary. The child restraint system is
correctly fixed to the brackets when you hear
the click. Follow the instructions for assembly, dis-
assembly and positioning that the manufacturer
must supply with the child restraint system.
INSTALLING A UNIVERSAL ISOFIX CHILD
RESTRAINT SYSTEM
Due to its different anchoring system, the child restraint
system must be anchored to the dedicated lower metal
rings A - fig. 11, set between rear seat backrest and rear
cushion. After removing the parcel shelf, secure the upperbelt (provided with the child restraint system) to the spe-
cific ring (after having opened the covering zip B - fig. 11)
located in the rear seat backrest.
Remember that when using a Universal Isofix child re-
straint system, you can use all type-approved systems with
the marking ECE R44 (R44/03 or superior) “Universal
Isofix”.
The Universal Isofix “Duo Plus” child restraint system and
the spec
ial “G 0/1” system are available from Lineacces-
sori Lancia.
For any further details on installation/use, refer to the
instruction manual for the child restraint system.

SAFETY
Main instructions for carrying children safely:
❍Install the child restraint systems on the rear seat,
which is the most protected position in the event of
an accident.
❍Keep children in rear facing restraint systems for as
long as possible, until 3–4 years old if possible.
❍Should a rear facing child restraint system be installed
on the rear seats, it is advisable to position it as far for-
ward as the position of the front seat allows.
❍If the front passenger’s airbag is deactivated always
check that the dedicated warning light is permanent-
ly switched on on the instrument panel to make sure
that it has actually been deactivated.
❍Carefully follow the instructions supplied with the child
restraint system itself. Keep the instructions in the car
along with the other documents and this handbook.
Do not use second-hand child restraint systems with-
out instructions.❍Only one child is to be strapped to each retaining sys-
tem; never use it to transport two children at once.
❍Always check that the seat belts do not interfere with
the child’s throat.
❍Always check that the seat belt is well fastened by
pulling on it.
❍While travelling, do not let the ch
ild sit incorrectly or
unfasten the belts.
❍Never allow a child to put the belt’s diagonal section
under an arm or behind their back.
❍Never carry children on your lap, even newborns. No-
one can restrain a child in the event of an accident.
❍In the event of an accident, replace the child restraint
system with a new one.
Fit the child restraint system according to the
instructions, which must be included.

When there is an active passenger airbag, DO
NOT install rear facing child restraint sys-
tems on the front seat. Deployment of the
airbag in an accident could cause fatal in-
juries to the child regardless of the severity
of the impact. Therefore, always deactivate the pas-
senger airbag when a rear facing child restraint
system is installed on the front passenger seat. The
front passenger seat must also be positioned back
as far as possible in order to avoid the child re-
straint system from coming into contact with the
dashboard. Immediately reactivate the passenger
airbag as soon as the child restraint system has been
removed.
