marked with a U in the table below.

passenger seat in its rearmost position 1)

.
T
o correctly use a child seat in the back, the
front backrest must be adjusted so that there
is no contact with the child seat in the back
in the case that it goes opposite to the direc-
tion of the car. In the case of front facing re-
straint systems, the front backrest must be
adjusted so that there is no contact with the
child's feet.
To adjust the passenger seat to accommo-
date a child's seat and get the seat belt in a perfect position, adjust the passenger back-
res
t as far forward as possible 1)
.
If a semi-universal type chair is to be instal-
led, in which the method of attachment to
the car is through the seat belt and support
bracket, it should never be installed in the
central rear seat as the ground clearance is
lower than in other places and the support
bracket will not allow the seat to remain suffi-
ciently stable.
The systems include the child restraint sys-
tem mounting with an upper retaining strap
(Top Tether) and lower anchoring points on
the seat. »1)
Compliance with current national legislation and
the manuf act
urer's instructions is required when us-
ing or installing child seats. 25

››› in Safety instructions on page 91Securing child seats with “ISOFIX” and Top Tether*
Child seats can be secured quickly, easily
and s
af
ely
on the rear outer seats with the
“ISOFIX” and Top Tether* system.
Two “ISOFIX” retaining rings are fitted on
each rear seat. In some vehicles, the rings
are secured to the seat frame and, in others,
they are secured to the rear floor. The “ISO- FIX” rings are located between the rear seat
back
rest and the seat cushioning ››› Fig. 32.
The Top Tether* rings are located on the rear
part of the backrests of the rear seats (be-
hind the seat backrest or in the boot)
››› Fig. 33. To understand the compatibility of the "ISO-
FIX" syst
ems in the vehicle, consult the table
below.
The body weight permitted and information
regarding sizes A to F is indicated on the la-
bel on child seats with “ universal” or “semi-
universal” certification. 26
The essentials

instructions.
● Press the child seat onto the “ISOFIX” re-

heard to engage securely. If the child seat is
equipped with Top Tether* anchor points, se-
cure it to the correspondent ring ››› Fig. 33.
Observe the manufacturer's instructions.
● Pull on both sides of the child seat to en-
sure th
at it is properly anchored. Child seats with the “ISOFIX” and Top Tether*

Position of the Top Tether rings on the

w
ith a s
tr
ap for securing the seat to the vehi-
cle anchor point, located at the back of the
rear seat backrest and provide greater re-
straint.
The objective of this strap is to reduce for-
ward movements of the child seat in a crash,
to reduce the risk of injuries to the head from
hitting the inside of the vehicle.
Using the Top Tether in rear-facing mounted
seats
Currently, there are very few rear-facing child
safety seats that have Top Tether. Please
carefully read and follow the seat manufac-
turer instructions to learn the proper way to
install the Top Tether strap. Securing the Top Tether* to the an-
