Seats, restraints63In addition to the ISOFIX mounting
brackets, fasten the Top-tether strap
to the Top-tether anchors.
ISOFIX child restraint systems of
universal category positions are
marked in the table by IUF 3 64.
Selecting the right system The rear seats are the most
convenient location to fasten a child
restraint system.
Children should travel facing
rearwards in the vehicle as long as
possible. This makes sure that the
child's backbone, which is still very
weak, is under less strain in the event
of an accident.
Suitable are child restraint systems
that comply with valid UN ECE
regulations. Check local laws and
regulations for mandatory use of child restraint systems.The following child restraints are
recommended for the following
weight classes:
● Group 0, Group 0+ :
Maxi Cosi Cabriofix with or without ISOFIX base for children
up to 13 kg
● Group I : Duo Plus with ISOFIX
and Top-tether for children from 9 kg to 18 kg
● Group II, Group III : Kidfix XP with
or without ISOFIX for children
from 15 kg to 36 kg
● Group III : Graco Booster for
children from 22 kg to 36 kg
Ensure that the child restraint system to be installed is compatible with the
vehicle type.
Ensure that the mounting location of
the child restraint system within the
vehicle is correct, see following
tables.
Allow children to enter and exit the
vehicle only on the side facing away
from the traffic.
When the child restraint system is not
in use, secure the seat with a seat belt or remove it from the vehicle.Notice
Do not affix anything on the child restraint systems and do not cover
them with any other materials.
A child restraint system which has
been subjected to stress in an
accident must be replaced.
