X =   Seat not suitable for fitting child seats.
U =   Seat which allows a child seat with “Universal” approval to be ins\
talled using a seat belt; check that it can be fitted.
IUF/IL =    On equipped vehicles, seat which allows an approved “Universal/semi-u\
niversal” or “vehicle specific” child seat to be 
attached using the ISOFIX system; check that it can be fitted.
(1)   Only a rear-facing child seat can be fitted in this seat: raise the seat\
 to the maximum and position it as far back as possible , 
tilting the seatback slightly (approximately 25°).
(2)   A carrycot can be installed across the vehicle and will take up two seats\
. Position the child with his or her feet nearest the 
door.
(3)   Move the front seat as far forward as possible to install a rear-facing \
child seat, then move back the seat in front as far as  it 
will go, although without allowing it to come into contact with the chil\
d seat.
(4)   Forward-facing child seat; position the seatback of the child seat in co\
ntact with the seatback of the vehicle seat. Adjust the  
height of the headrest or remove it if necessary; do not push the seat i\
n front of the child more than halfway back on its run-
ners and do not recline the seatback more than 25°.
(5) RISK OF DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY: before fitting a rear-facing child seat in the front passenger seat, ch\
eck 
that the air bag deactivator is in the OFF position .
The table below summarises the information already shown on the diagram \
on the previous page, to ensure the regula-
tions in force are respected.

positioned correctly.
Reposition the headrests.
When driving with the seats 
folded down: ensure you 
check that the seats are 
moved fully forward before 
folding them down and place the 
load as close as possible to prevent 
the seats from falling back when ac-
celerating or during sudden braking.

Always place the objects to be trans-
ported so that their largest side rests 
against the back of the rear bench seat, 
for normal loads (example A)  or against 
the back of the front seats  B when the 
rear bench seatbacks are folded down.
If you have to place objects on the 
folded seat back, it is vital that you 
remove the headrests before folding 
the seat back so that it can be folded as 
flat as possible against the seat.
TRANSPORTING OBJECTS IN THE LUGGAGE COMPARTMENT 
A
Always position the hea-
viest items directly on the 
floor. Use the lashing points 
on the floor of the luggage 
compartment, if these are fitted to 
the vehicle. The luggage should be 
loaded in such a way that no items 
will be thrown forward and strike the 
occupants if the driver has to brake 
suddenly. Fasten the rear seat belts, 
even if the seats are not occupied.
