For the protection of all vehicle occupants
In the case of an emergency stop or an accident, persons or objects which are not properly secured in the car can cause injury to other vehicle
occupants. For this reason, please always check that...
• the backrests of the vehicle seats are locked (e.g. that the latch on a folding rear seat bench is engaged).
• all heavy or sharp-edged objects in the vehicle (e.g. on the parcel shelf) are secured.
• all persons in the vehicle have their seatbelts fastened.
• the child safety seat is always secured in the car via the ISOFIX anchoring and the T
.
For the protection of your child
• The more snugly the harness fi ts over your child‘s body
• Please do not ever leave your child unattended in the child safety seat in the vehicle.
Preparatory work
1. If your vehicle is not equipped with the ISOFIX insert guides as
standard, clip the two insert guides
02
which are included with the
seat* with the cut-out facing upwards onto the two ISOFIX attach-
ment points
01
of your vehicle.
TIP: The ISOFIX attachment points are located between the surface
and the backrest of the vehicle seat.
2. Move the head restraint on the vehicle seat to the upper position.
* The insert guides make it easier to install the child safety seat with the aid of the ISO-
FIX attachment points and prevent damage to the seat covering. When not in use, they
should be removed and stored in a safe place. On vehicles with a folding backrest the
insert guides must be removed before the backrest is folded.
Any problems which occur are usually caused by dirt or foreign objects on the insert
guides and on the hooks. Clean off any dirt or foreign objects to remedy this type of
problem.
