Child seat - two-stage booster seat*
The integrated booster seats in the rear seat
allow children to sit comfortably and safely.
The booster cushions are specially designed to
provide optimum safety. In combination with the
seatbelt (p. 28) they are approved for children
who weigh between 15 and 36 kg and who are
at least 95 cm in height.
Correct position, the seatbelt should be positioned in on
the shoulder.
Incorrect positioning, the seatbelt must not be placed
beneath the shoulder.
Check before driving that:
•the integrated two-stage booster seat is cor-
rectly set in accordance with the table
(p. 52) and in locked position
•the seatbelt is in contact with the child's
body and is not slack or twisted
•the seatbelt does not lie across the child's
throat or below the shoulder (see preceding
illustrations)
•the lap section of the seatbelt is positioned
low over the pelvis to provide optimal protec-
tion.
Adjusting the booster seat's two levels is per-
formed by raising (p. 52) and lowering (p. 53).
