●Child seats for groups 0, 0+ and 1 with the ISOFIX system can be se-
cured, without fastening seat belts, with the ISOFIX securing rings

sible and always disable the airbag.

WARNING
●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 40, 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 ⇒ in Safety notes on using child seats on page 43.
