Rear seats
This system prevents the child seat from tipping
forward in the event of a front impact.
This ISOFIX mounting system provides fast,
reliable and safe fitting of the child seat in the
vehicle.
To secure the child seat to the TOP TETHER:
► Remove and stow the head restraint before
installing the child seat on this seat (refit it once
the child seat has been removed).
►  Pass the upper strap of the child seat behind
the seat backrest, between the head restraint
rods.
►  Secure the upper strap hook to ring B.
►  Tighten the upper strap.
When fitting an ISOFIX child seat to the
left-hand rear seat of the bench seat,
before fitting the seat, first move the centre
rear seat belt towards the middle of the
vehicle, so as to avoid the seat interfering with
the operation of the seat belt.

compromises the child's safety in the
event of an accident.
Strictly observe the fitting instructions
provided in the user guide supplied with the
child seat.
