NOTE
Never leave a child seat loose in the car.
Always secure it according to the instruc-
tions for the child seat, even when it is not
in use.
NOTE
Long-term installation and use of child
seats may cause wear and tear on the car's
fittings. Volvo recommends using the kick
guard accessory to protect the car's fit-
tings.
Installation in the front seat
•
When fitting rear-facing child seats, check
that the passenger airbag is deactivated.
•
When fitting front-facing child seats,
check that the passenger airbag is acti-
vated.

Only use child seats that are recom-
mended by Volvo, are universally approved
or are semi-universal, and where the car is
included on the manufacturer's vehicle list.

the car is equipped with the ISOFIX con-
sole

ommendations from the child seat manu-
facturer.

legs, always fit the support leg/support
legs directly to the floor. Never fit a sup-
port leg to a footrest or other object.
