The ISOFIX mountings are three rings for each seat:
The TOP TETHER is used to secure the upper s

The ISOFIX child seats
  are   fitted   with  
t

wo latches   which   are   secured   easily   on   the  
t

wo   rings   A.
Some
  also   have   an   upper strap   (or   top   tether)  
w

hich   is   attached   to   ring   B. When
  installing   an   ISOFIX   child   seat   on   the  
r

ight   hand   rear   seat,   before   securing   the   seat,  
f

irst   move   the   centre   rear   seat   belt   towards   the  
m
