Some seats are not suitable for fitting

child seats. The diagram on the follow-

ing page shows you how to attach a

child seat.

The types of child seats indicated may

not be available. Before using a differ-

ent child seat, check with the manufac-

turer that it can be fitted.

CHILD SAFETY: fitting a child seat (1/5)

In the rear side seat

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 in front

as far as it will go, although without al-

lowing it to come into contact with the

child seat.

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 for-

ward-facing child seat is resting against

the back of the vehicle seat and that the

headrest of the vehicle is not obstruct-

ing its use.

Rear centre seat

Check that the belt is suitable for se-

curing your child seat. Consult an ap-

proved dealer.

In the front 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.

Before fitting a child seat in this seat (if

authorised):

– lower the seat belt as far as possible;

– 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.

Do not change these settings after the

child seat is installed.

RISK OF DEATH OR

SERIOUS INJURY: before

installing a child seat on this

seat, check that the airbag

has been deactivated (refer to “Child

safety: front passenger airbag deac-

tivation/activation” in Section 1).

Fit the child seat in a rear

seat wherever possible.

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.

Make sure 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.
