PREPARATION FOR “ISOFIX”
CHILD SEAT
The car is equipped with ISOFIX anchorages, a new standard which
makes fitting a child seat quick, simple and safe.
Isofix systems can be fitted alongside conventional child seats on
different seats in the same car.
An example of a Universal Isofix child seat for weight group 1 is
shown in fig. 100.
The diagram is indicative and for assembly purposes
only. Fit the child seat according to the instructions,
which must be included.
The other weight groups are covered by specific Isofix child seats,
which can be used only if specifically tested for this car (see list of cars
provided with the child seat).
IMPORTANT The central rear seat is not approved for any type of Isofix
child seat.

INSTALLING A UNIVERSAL ISOFIX
CHILD SEAT
Proceed as follows:
❒secure the child seat to the dedicated lower metal rings A fig. 101,
positioned between the backrest and the cushion of the rear seat;
❒fix the upper belt (available together with the seat) to the special
attachments B fig. 102 located in the rear part of the backrest.
It is possible to have a mixed assembly of traditional seat and
Universal Isofix ones. Remember that when using a Universal Isofix
child seat, you can only use type-approved child seats with the
marking ECE R44 (R44/03 or superior) “Universal Isofix”.
The universal Isofix "Duo Plus" child seat is available from
Lineaccessori Alfa Romeo.
For further details on child seat installation and/or use, refer to the
instruction manual provided with the child seat.
If a Universal Isofix child seat is not fixed to all three
anchorages, the child seat will not be able to protect
the child correctly. In a crash, the child could be
seriously or fatally injured.
Fit the child seat only when the car is stationary. The
child seat is correctly secured to the brackets when you
hear the click. Follow the instructions for fitting,
removing and positioning that the manufacturer must supply
with the child seat.
