WARNING
Child restraint systems with Isofix
attachments are available for a safe
anchoring to the seat without using the car seat
belts.
GROUP 2WARNING
The diagram is indicative and for fitting
purposes only. Fit the child restraint
system according to the instructions, which must
be included. Children from 15 to 25 kg may use the car seat belts
directly fig. 107.
In this case, the child restraint system is used to
position the child correctly with respect to the seat
belts so that the diagonal belt section crosses the
child’s chest and not the neck, and the lower part is
snug on the pelvis not the abdomen.
