IMPORTANT The backrest is correctly
secured when the red band on the
backrest folding handles A fig. 103
disappears. This red band indicates
that the backrest is not secured.

ADJUSTING THE SEAT
BELT HEIGHT
59) 60)
The seat belt height can be adjusted to
various positions using the regulator
on the central pillar.
Always adjust the height of the seat
belts to fit the person wearing it: this
precaution could greatly reduce the risk
of injury in the event of collision.
Correct adjustment is obtained when
the belt passes approximately half way
between the shoulder and the neck.
WARNING
56)Never press button C fig. 100when
travelling.
57)Remember that after a violent impact,
rear-seat passengers who are not wearing
their seat belts not only expose themselves
to significant risk for injury, but also
represent a danger to passengers
occupying the front seats.
58)Make sure that the backrest is correctly
secured on both sides (red bands B not
visible) to prevent it from moving forward in
the event of sharp braking, causing injuries
to passengers.
59)The height of the seat belts must be
adjusted with the vehicle stationary.
60)After the height adjustment, always
check that the regulator is locked in one of
the preset positions. To do this, push
downwards to enable the locking device to
click if the grip has not been released in
one of the possible positions.

SAFETY

Below is a summary of
the main safety rules to
be followed when
carrying children:
install the child restraint systems on
the rear seat, which is the most
protected position in the event of an
accident;
if you need to deactivate the
passenger airbag, always check that it
is actually deactivated by checking
that the
warning light is on
constantly either alone or in the SBR
(according to the version, where
provided);
carefully follow the instructions that
came with the child restraint system,
which the manufacturer must supply by
law. Keep the instructions in the vehicle
along with the other papers and this
handbook. Do not install second-hand
child restraint systems without
instructions;
always check that the seat belt is
well fastened by pulling on it;
only one child is to be strapped into
each restraint system; never carry
two children using one child restraint
system;
always check that seat belts do not
rest on the child’s neck;
while travelling, do not let the child
sit incorrectly or release the belts;
never carry children on your lap,
even newborns. No-one can hold
a child in the case of a crash.
if the car has been involved in a road
accident, replace the child restraint
system with a new one. In addition, and
depending on the type of child restraint
system installed, replace the Isofix
anchorages or the seat belt with which
the child restraint system was
connected.
The rear head restraint can be
removed if needed to install a child
restraint system. The head restraint
must always be present in the vehicle
and fitted if the seat is used by an adult
passenger or a child sitting in a restraint
system without backrest.
68) 69) 70) 71) 72) 73) 74) 75)
WARNING
67)Fit the child restraint system only when
the vehicle is stationary. The child restraint
system is correctly fixed to the setup
brackets when you hear the click. Follow
the instructions for assembly, disassembly
and positioning that the Manufacturer
must supply with the child restraint system.68)When there is an active passenger
airbag, DO NOT install rearward facing
child restraint systems on the front seat.
Always deactivate the passenger airbag
when a rear facing child restraint system is
installed on the front passenger seat.
69)On the sun visor there is a label with
suitable symbols reminding the user that it
is compulsory to deactivate the airbag if
a rearward facing child restraint system is
fitted. Always comply with the instructions
on the passenger side sun visor (see the
"Airbags" paragraph).
70)Do not move the front or rear seat if a
child is seated on it or on the dedicated
child restraint system.
71)Incorrect fitting of the child restraint
system may result in an inefficient
protection system. In the event of an
accident the child restraint system may
become loose and the child may be
injured, even fatally. When fitting a restraint
system for newborns or children, strictly
comply with the instructions provided
by the Manufacturer.
72)When the child restraint system is not
used, secure it with the seat belt or with
the ISOFIX anchorages, or remove it from
the car. Do not leave it unsecured inside
the passenger compartment. In this way, in
the event of sudden braking or an
accident, it will not cause injuries to the
occupants.
73)After installing a child restraint system,
do not move the seat: always remove
the child restraint system before making
any adjustment.
