following ways:

● Child seats in groups 
0, 0+ and 1 with the ISOFIX and Top Tether* sys-
tems can be secured without using the seatbelt, thanks to the ISOFIX and
Top Tether* securing rings

●
When travelling, children must be secured in the vehicle with a re-
straint system suitable for age, weight and size.
●
Never install a child seat facing backwards on the front passenger
seat unless the front passenger airbag has been disabled. This could
cause fatal injuries to the child! However, if, in exceptional cases, it is
necessary to transport a child in the front passenger seat, the front pas-
senger airbag 
⇒ page 44, Deactivating airbags* must always be disabled
and the seat adjusted to its highest position, where possible.
●
Read and always observe information and warnings concerning the
use of child seats 
⇒ page 46.

Child safety
When removing or fitting the child seat, please be sure to follow
the manufacturer's instructions.
– Move the seat as far to rear as it will go.
– Press the child seat onto the ISOFIX retaining rings until the
child seat can be heard to engage securely. If the child seat is
equipped with Toptether* anchor points, secure it to the corre-
spondent ring. Observe the manufacturer's instructions.
– Pull on both sides of the child seat to ensure that it is secure.
Two ISOFIX retaining rings are fitted on each rear seat. In some vehicles, the
rings are secured to the seat frame and, in others, they are secured to the
rear floor. The access to the ISOFIX rings is between the rear seat backrest
and the seat cushioning. The Top Tether* anchors are located at the rear of
the backs seats (behind the seat or in the luggage compartment).
Child seats with the ISOFIX and Top Tether* attachment system are available
from the Authorised Service Centres.
WARNING
●
The securing rings are designed only for use with ISOFIX and Top
Tether* child seats.
●
Never secure child seats that do not have the ISOFIX and Top Tether*
system, retaining belts or other objects to the securing rings – this could
result in potentially fatal injuries to the child!
●
Ensure that the child seat is secured correctly using the “ISOFIX” and
Top Tether* securing rings.
