equivalent standard.
·If the child seat backrest is removed, the child
seat must be placed in a position where there is
a head restraint.
·The child must always be strapped in, even for
short journeys.
·Make sure the belt securing the child safety seat
is properly tensioned and not caught in the car

tant that the lap belt is across the hip and not the
abdomen.

lision, it must never be used again.
·The child seat could be damaged by being

the backrest is properly locked in the upright
position.

WARNING
Read all instructions before using the child seat.
The child seat may under no circumstances be
fitted in any manner other than that described in
these installation instructions.
WARNING
If the car is equipped with a front passenger air-
bag, the child seat must absolutely not be fitted
in this seat.
Before fitting the child seat in the front passenger
seat, make sure that the car does not have a front
passenger airbag. On cars equipped with a front
passenger airbag, the text AIRBAG and/or SRS is
found on the dashboard in front of the passenger
seat and there is a label on the passenger side
sun visor or the end of the dashboard on the pas-
senger side. In certain markets, there is also a
label on the dashboard shell in front of the passen-
ger seat or on the sun visor.
Important
Become acquainted with national regulations
regarding child seat placement.

sure the child is sitting comfortably and leaning
against the backrest.

the child and buckle them in. The shoulder belt
should run through the slit (A) in the seat back-
rest. Both the shoulder and the lap belts should

detached from the seat cushion by removing
two screws. In this case, the seat cushion must
be used in a position with head restraint.
