DS3_en_Chap07_securite-enfants_ed01-2015
Your vehicle has been approved in accordance
with the latest ISOFIX regulation.
The seats, represented below, are fitted with
regulation
I
SOFIX
m
ountings:
"ISOFIX" mountings
There are three rings for each seat: -
a
ring B
, behind the seat, referred to as the
TOP TETHER for securing the upper strap.
The TOP TETHER is used to secure the
upper strap of child seats that have one. This
a
rrangement limits the for ward tipping of the
c
hild seat in the event of a front impact.
This
ISOFIX mounting system provides fast,
r
eliable and safe fitting of the child seat in your
v
ehicle.
-
t
wo rings A, located between the vehicle
seat
back and cushion, indicated by a
lab
el, The ISOFIX child seats are fitted with two
latches
which are secured on the two rings A.
Some
seats also have an upper strap which is
attached
to ring B. To
secure the child seat to the top tether:
-
r
emove and stow the head restraint before
i
nstalling the child seat on this seat (refit it
o
nce the child seat has been removed),
-
p
ass the child seat strap over the top of
the backrest of the seat, keeping it centred
b
etween the head restraint apertures,
-
s
ecure the hook of the upper strap to the
r
ing B
,
-
t
ighten the upper strap.
When fitting an ISOFIX child seat to the right
h
and rear seat, before fixing the seat in place,
f
irst move the centre rear seat belt towards the
m
iddle of the vehicle so as to not inter fere with t
he operation of the seat be
lt.
The incorrect installation of a child seat
in
a vehicle compromises the child's
p
rotection in the event of an accident.
Follow
strictly the advice given in the
in
stallation instructions provided with
the
child seat.
Refer
to the table for the possibilities for fitting
I
SOFIX child seats in your vehicle.
