There are two ways to install a child restraint system.
- Using the seat belt;
- Using the ISOFIX system.
Attachment via the seat belt
The seat belt must be adjusted in order to ensure it works in the event of sudden braking or impact.
Ensure that the strap paths indicated by the child seat manufacturer are observed.
Always check that the seat belt is correctly fastened by pulling it up, then pulling it out fully whilst pressing on the child seat.
Check that the seat is correctly held by moving it from side to side and back to front: the seat should remain firmly fixed.
Check that the child seat has not been installed at an angle and that it is not resting against a window.
Some child booster seats may not be compatible for installation. In particular, rear-facing child booster seats may be impossible to install or may not be installed correctly depending on their size.
Be sure to check that the child booster seat can be installed correctly before purchasing.
warning
Do not use the child seat if it risks unfastening the seat belt restraining it: the base of the seat must not rest on the buckle and/or catch of the seat belt.
warning
The seat belt must never be twisted or the tension relieved. Never pass the shoulder strap under the arm or behind the back.
Check that the seat belt has not been damaged by sharp edges. If the seat belt does not operate normally, it will not protect the child. Consult an approved Dealer. Do not use this seat until the seat belt has been repaired.
Attachment using the ISOFIX system
Authorised ISOFIX child seats are approved in accordance with current regulations if any of the three cases below applies:
- universal ISOFIX 3-point forward-facing seat;
- semi-universal ISOFIX 2-point seat;
- etc.
In the former two cases, check that your child seat can be installed by consulting the list of compatible vehicles.
Attach the child seat using the ISOFIX locks, if equipped. The ISOFIX system allows quick, easy and safe fitting.
The ISOFIX system consists of 2 rings and, in some cases, a third ring.
warning
Before using an ISOFIX child seat that you purchased for another vehicle, check that its installation is authorised. Consult the list of vehicles which can be fitted with the seat with the equipment manufacturer.
warning
No modifications must be made to the originally-fitted restraint system components: seat belts, ISOFIX and seats and their mountings.
warning
The ISOFIX anchoring points have been exclusively designed for child seats equipped with the ISOFIX system. Never fit a different type of child seat, seat belt or other objects to these fittings.
Check that nothing is obstructing the anchorage points.
If your vehicle has been involved in a road accident, have the ISOFIX anchorage points checked and replace your child seat.
