CHILD SAFETY: Fitting a child seat  
Some seats are not suitable for fitting  
child seats. The diagram on the follow-  
ing page shows you how to attach a  
child seat.  
In the front seat  
In the rear side seat  
The laws concerning children travel-  
ling in the front passenger seat differ in  
every country. Consult the legislation in  
force and follow the indications on the  
diagram on the following page.  
A carrycot can be installed across the  
vehicle and will take up at least two  
seats. Position the child with his or her  
feet nearest the door.  
Move the front seat as far forward as  
possible to install a rear-facing child  
seat, then move back the seat or seats  
in front in accordance with the child  
seat instructions.  
For the safety of the child in the for-  
ward-facing seat, do not move the seat  
in front back past the middle of the  
runner, do not tilt the seatback too far  
(maximum of 25°) and raise the seat as  
much as possible.  
Check that the forward-facing child seat  
is resting against the back of the vehi-  
cle seat and that the headrest of the ve-  
hicle is not obstructing its use.  
The types of child seat indicated may  
not be available. Before using a differ-  
ent child seat, check with the manufac-  
turer that it can be fitted.  
Before fitting a child seat in this seat (if  
authorised):  
– lower the seat belt as far as possi-  
ble;  
– move the seat as far back as possi-  
ble;  
– gently tilt the seatback away from  
vertical (approximately 25°);  
– on equipped vehicles, raise the seat  
base as far as possible.  
Ensure that the child seat  
or the child’s feet do not  
prevent the front seat from  
locking correctly. Refer to  
the information on the “Front seat”  
in Section 1.  
Check that when installing the child  
seat in the vehicle it is not at risk of  
coming loose from its base.  
If you have to remove the headrest,  
check that it is correctly stored so  
that it does not come loose under  
harsh braking or impact.  
Always attach the child seat to the  
vehicle even if it is not in use so that  
it does not come loose under harsh  
braking or impact.  
Do not change these settings after the  
child seat is installed.  
Rear centre seat  
Check that the belt is suitable for se-  
curing your child seat. Consult an ap-  
proved dealer.  
RISK OF DEATH OR  
SERIOUS INJURY: before  
fitting a rear-facing child  
seat to the front passenger  
seat, check that the air bag has been  
deactivated (refer to “Child safety:  
deactivating/activating the front pas-  
senger air bag” in Section 1).  
Fit the child seat in a rear  
seat wherever possible.
