2015 Lancia Ypsilon belt

GROUP 2
Children from 15 to 25 kg may use the car seat
belts directly fig. 103.
The child seat is now needed only to position the
child correctly with respect to the belts so that the
diagonal section crosses the child's chest and
never the neck, and the lower part is snug on the
pelvis not the abdomen.
GROUP 3
For children from 22 kg up to 36 kg suitable
risers are available to position the seat belt
correctly.
Thefig. 104 shows an example of correct child seat
positioning on the rear seat.
Children over 1.50 m in height can wear seat belts
like adults.WARNING
The figures are only examples for
fitting purposes. Install the car seat
according to the instructions, which are
mandatorily included with this type of
restraint system.

Main safety rules to be followed when
carrying children:
❒Install the child seats on the rear seat, which is
the most protected position in the event of an
accident.
❒If the passenger's air bag is deactivated always
check the warning light on the instrument
panel to make sure that it has actually been
deactivated.
❒Carefully follow the instructions supplied with
the child seat which are mandatory by law.
Keep the instructions in the car along with the
other documents and this handbook. Do not use
second-hand child seats without instructions.
❒Always check that the seat belt is well fastened
by pulling on it.
❒Only one child is to be strapped into each
retaining system; never carry two children using
one child seat.
❒Always check that the seat belts do not restrain
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 can restrain a child in the
event of an accident.
❒In the event of an accident, replace the child
seat with a new one.ISOFIX CHILD SEAT SETUP
The car can be fitted with a Universal Isofix child
seat, a new European standardised system for
carrying children safely.
Isofix systems can be fitted alongside traditional
child seat. An example of Universal Isofix child
seat covering weight group 1 is shown in fig. 105.
Specific Isofix child seats cover the other weight
groups. These seats must be designed, tested
and type-approved specifically for this car (refer
to the list of cars attached to the child seat).
IMPORTANT The central rear seat is not
approved for any type of Isofix seats

AIRBAG
The car is fitted with front airbags for driver and
passenger, front side bags for driver and passenger
chest-shoulder protection (for versions/markets,
where provided), and window bags for protecting
the heads of front occupants.
FRONT AIRBAGS
The front (driver and passenger) airbags protect
the front seat occupants in the event of head-on
impacts of medium-high severity, by placing
the bag between the occupant and the steering
wheel or dashboard.
Therefore non-deployment in other types of
impacts (side impacts, rear shunts, roll-overs, etc.)
does not indicate a system malfunction.
Front (driver and passenger) air bags are not a
replacement of but complementary to the seat
belts, which you are recommended to always wear,
as specified by law in Europe and most non-
European countries.
In the event of an impact, those not wearing a seat
belt move forward and may come into contact
with the bag which is still inflating. The protection
offered by the bag is reduced in these
circumstances.Front airbags may not activate in the following
situations:
❒frontal impacts against highly deformable
objects not involving the front surface of the car
(e.g. wing collision against guard rail, etc.);
❒car wedging under other vehicles or protective
barriers (e.g. trucks or guard rails);
they may not provide any additional protection
compared with seat belts, so their deployment
would be inappropriate. In these cases, non-
deployment does not indicate a system
malfunction.
WARNING
Do not apply stickers or other objects
on the steering wheel, on the
dashboard in the passenger side airbag area,
on side upholstery on roof and on the seats.
Never put objects (e.g. mobile phones) on the
passenger side of the dashboard since they
could interfere with correct inflation of
the passenger airbag and also cause serious
injury to the passengers.

WARNING
The airbag deployment threshold is
higher than that of the pretensioners.
For collisions in the range between the two
thresholds, it is normal for only the
pretensioners to be activated.
WARNING
The airbag does not replace seat belts
but increases their efficiency.
Because front airbags are not deployed for
low-speed crashes, side collisions, rear-end
shunts or rollovers, occupants are protected,
in addition to any side bags, only by their
seat belts, which must therefore always
be fastened.
