The vehicle has been approved in accordance
with the latest ISOFIX and i-Size regulations.
If fitted to the vehicle, approved ISOFIX and
i-Size fixings can be identified by the labels
attached to them.
There are three rings for each seat:
–
T
wo front rings A, located between the vehicle
seat backrest and cushion, indicated by an
"ISOFIX" or "i-Size" marking,
–
If fitted to your vehicle, a rear ring

Top Tether, is located behind the vehicle's seat
and is used to secure the upper strap and is
indicated by a "Top Tether" marking.
The Top Tether secures the upper strap of child

i-Size child seats are fitted with two
latches which are secured to the two front rings
A.
Some child seats also have an upper strap which
is attached to rear ring B.

installing a child seat on this seat (refit it once
the child seat has been removed),

of the child seat over the top
of the seat backrest, centring it between the
openings for the head restraint rods,
–
attach the hook of the upper strap to rear ring
