"ISOFIX" mountings
Your vehicle has been approved in accordance
with the latest ISOFIX regulation
The ISOFIX child seats are fitted with two
latches which are secured on the two rings A
Some seats also have an upper strap, known
as the Top Tether, which is attached to ring B
The seats, represented below, are fitted with
regulation ISOFIX mountings:
To secure the child seat to the top tether :
-
remove and stow the head restraint before
installing the child seat in this seating
position (refit it once the child seat has
been removed),
-
a ring B behind the seat for fixing the upper
strap, referred to as the Top Tether
-
pass the strap of the child seat over the top
of the seat backrest, centred between the
apertures for the head restraint rods,
fix the hook of the upper strap to the ring B
tighten the upper strap.

The top tether is used to secure the upper strap
of child seats that have one. This arrangement
limits the forward tipping of the child seat in the
event of a front impact.
This ISOFIX mounting system provides fast,
reliable and safe fitting of the child seat in your
vehicle.
The incorrect installation of a child seat
in a vehicle compromises the child's
protection in the event of an accident.
Follow the instructions for fitting
child seats contained in the seat
manufacturer's installation guide.
When fitting an ISOFIX child seat to the left
hand rear 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.
There are three rings for each seat:
-
two rings A, located between the vehicle
seat back and cushion, indicated by a
marking,
For information on the possibilities for installing
ISOFIX child seats in your vehicle, refer to the
