Child restraints
Child restraint systems
We recommend the Vauxhall child
restraint system which is tailored
specifically to the vehicle.
When a child restraint system is being
used, pay attention to the following
usage and installation instructions
and also those supplied with the child restraint system.
Always comply with local or national
regulations. In some countries, the
use of child restraint systems is
forbidden on certain seats.9 Warning
When using a child restraint
system on the front passenger
seat, the airbag systems for the
front passenger seat must be
deactivated; if not, the triggering of the airbags poses a risk of fatal
injury to the child.
This is especially the case if rear-
facing child restraint systems are
used on the front passenger seat.
Airbag deactivation 3 50.
Airbag label 3 45.
Child restraint systems can be
fastened with:
● ISOFIX brackets
● Top-tether anchor
ISOFIX child restraint systems
For the installation of ISOFIX child
restraint systems, two variants are
available:
● Installation of ISOFIX child restraint systems without
permanent guide
● Installation of ISOFIX child restraint systems with permanentguide

Fasten vehicle-approved ISOFIX
child restraint systems to the ISOFIX
mounting brackets. Specific vehicle
ISOFIX child restraint system
positions are marked in the table by
IL.
ISOFIX mounting brackets are
indicated by a label on the backrest.
Installation of ISOFIX child restraint
systems with permanent guide
The vehicle might be equipped with
guides in front of the mounting
brackets to support the installation of the child restraint system.
The covers of the guides will swivel
backwards automatically when
attaching the child restraint system.
Top-tether anchors Depending on country specific
equipment, the vehicle might have
two or three fastening eyes.
Top-Tether anchors are marked with
the symbol : for a child restraint.

For non-ISOFIX child restraints,
fasten the Top-Tether strap to the
Top-Tether anchors. The strap must
run between the two guide rods of the
head restraint.
For ISOFIX child restraints, fasten the
Top-Tether strap to the Top-Tether
anchors in addition to the ISOFIX
mounting. The strap must run
between the two guide rods of the
head restraint.
ISOFIX child restraint systems of
universal category positions are
marked in the table by IUF.
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 ensures that the child's backbone, which is still very weak, is
under less strain in the event of an
accident.
Suitable are restraint systems that
comply with valid UN ECE
regulations. Check local laws and
regulations for mandatory use of child restraint systems.
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 beltor 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.
