KNOWING YOUR CAR
In-depth knowledge of your new vehicle
starts here.
The booklet that you are reading simply
and directly explains how it is made and
how it works.
That’s why we advise you to read it
seated comfortably on board, so that
you can see immediately what is
described here for yourself.INSTRUMENT PANEL...........8

INSTALLING AN ISOFIX
CHILD CARSEAT
86) 87) 87) 88)
The rear side seats of the vehicle are
equipped with ISOFIX anchors, for
fitting child restraint systems quickly,
simply and safely. The ISOFIX system
lets you install the ISOFIX child
restraining system without using the car
seat belts but connecting them directly
to the carseat with three anchors in the
car.
Traditional child restraint systems can
be fitted alongside ISOFIX child restraint
systems on different seats in the same
vehicle.
To install an ISOFIX child restraint
system, attach it to the two metal
anchors 1 fig. 85 located behind the
cushion of the rear seat, in the point
where it meets the backrest, then fix the
upper hook of the child restraint system
to the dedicated anchor 2
fig. 86 located behind the seat
headrest.
As an example, fig. 88 shows an
example of a Universal ISOFIX child
restraint system for weight group 1.
IMPORTANT The fig. 88 is indicative
and for assembly purposes only. Fit the
child restraint system according to the
instructions, which must be included.NOTE When a Universal ISOFIX child
restraint system is used, only ECE R44
"ISOFIX Universal” (R44/03 or further
upgrades) type-approved child restraint
systems can be used (see fig. 87 ).

Main recommendations to carry
children safely
Install the child restraint systems on
the rear seat, which is the most
protected position in the event of an
impact.
Keep children in rearward facing child
restraint systems for as long as
possible, until 3–4 years old if possible.
If the passenger front airbag (where
provided) is deactivated always check
the dedicated warning light on the trim
located on the dashboard to make sure
that it has actually been deactivated.
Carefully follow the instructions
supplied with the child restraint system.
Keep the instructions in the vehicle
along with the other documents and
this handbook. Do not use
second-hand child seats without
instructions.
Only one child is to be strapped into
each restraint system; never carry two
children using one child restraint
system.
Always check that the seat belts do
not rest on the child’s neck.
Always check that the seat belt is
well fastened by pulling on it.
While travelling, do not let the child
sit incorrectly or unfasten the belts.
Never allow a child to put the belt's
diagonal section under an arm or
behind their back.
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.
Any child restraint system fitted
facing forward on an outside rear seat,
independently of its weight group, must
be fitted after removing the head
restraint relative to the seat where it is
to be fitted. This does not apply to child
restraint systems that only consist of a
cushion (without backrest): these child
restraint systems must be installed
when the relative headrest is fitted.
IMPORTANT For correct installation on
the car, some universal child restraint
systems require an accessory (base)
sold separately by the restraint
system's producer. Therefore, FCA
advises customers to check that their
chosen child restraint system can be
installed on their vehicle by performing
a trial installation, on the vendor's
premises, before purchase.
WARNING
78)SEVERE DANGER When a front
passenger airbag is fitted, do not install
rearward facing child restraint systems on
the front passenger seat. Deployment of
the airbag in an accident could cause fatal
injuries to the child regardless of the
severity of the collision. It is advisable to
always carry children in a child restraint
system on the rear seat, which is the most
protected position in the event of a
collision.
79)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
"Supplementary Restraint System (SRS) -
Airbag" paragraph).
80)Should it be necessary to carry a child
on the passenger side front seat in a rear
facing child restraint system, the passenger
side front airbag and side bag must be
deactivated through the Connect system
main menu (see the "Supplementary
Restraint System (SRS) - Airbag"
paragraph), verifying deactivation by
checking whether the
LED has
illuminated on the front ceiling light. Move
the passenger's seat as far back as
possible to avoid contact between the
child seat and the dashboard.
81)Do not move the front or rear seat if a
child is seated on it or on the dedicated
child restraint system
