system from working properly. The

operation of the airbag system can

also be affected by changing any

parts of the front seats, seat belts,

airbag sensing and diagnostic

module, steering wheel,

instrument panel, inner door seals

including the speakers, any of the

airbag modules, ceiling or pillar

trim, front sensors, side impact

sensors or airbag wiring.

Front airbag system

The front airbag system consists of

one airbag in the steering wheel and

one in the instrument panel on the

front passenger side. These can be

identified by the word AIRBAG.
The front airbag system is triggered in

the event of a front-end impact of a

certain severity. The ignition must be

switched on.

The inflated airbags cushion the

impact, thereby reducing the risk of

injury to the upper body and head of

the front seat occupants

considerably.

Warning

Optimum protection is only

provided when the seat is in the

proper position.

The side airbag system consists of an

airbag in each front seat backrest.

This can be identified by the word

AIRBAG.
The side airbag system is triggered in

the event of a side impact of a certain

severity. The ignition must be

switched on.

The inflated airbags cushion the

impact, thereby reducing the risk of

injury to the upper body and pelvis in

the event of a side-on collision

considerably.

Warning

Keep the area in which the airbag

inflates clear of obstructions.

Notice

Only use protective seat covers that

have been approved for the vehicle.

Be careful not to cover the airbags.

Curtain airbag system

The curtain airbag system consists of

an airbag in the roof frame on each

side.
The curtain airbag system is triggered

in the event of a side-on impact of a

certain severity. The ignition must be

switched on.

The inflated airbags cushion the

impact, thereby reducing the risk of

injury to the head in the event of a

side-on impact considerably.

We recommend a child restraint

system which is tailored specifically to

the vehicle. For further information,

contact your workshop.
In case of any interference of the child

restraint system with vehicle seat

head restraint, adjust or remove the

corresponding head restraint

32.

When a child restraint system is being

used, pay attention to the following

usage and installation instructions as

well as to those supplied with the child

restraint system. The given

restrictions in the table refer to a test

body, which is the maximum

envelope of all existing child restraint

systems. Make sure that the front

seats do not interfere with the used

child restraint system.
With a child seat installed usage of

one or more seats in the same row

may not be allowed.
Always comply with local or national

regulations. In some countries, the

use of child restraint systems is

forbidden on certain seats.
Only drive with the driver seat

correctly adjusted

33.

Seats, restraints

Child restraint systems can be

fastened with:

● Three-point seat belt
● ISOFIX brackets
● Top-tether

Three-point seat belt

Child restraint systems can be

fastened by using a three-point seat

belt. Depending on the size of the

used child restraint systems and the

equipment of car, up to six child

restraint systems can be attached to

the rear seats. After fastening the

child restraint system the seat belt

has to be tightened.

ISOFIX brackets

ISOFIX child seats and vehicle seats

with ISOFIX approval are marked with

ISOFIX symbol, see illustration.
Fasten vehicle-approved ISOFIX

child restraint systems to the ISOFIX

brackets. Specific vehicle ISOFIX

child restraint system positions are

marked in the ISOFIX table

56.

Either a Top-tether strap or a support

leg must be used in addition to the

ISOFIX brackets.

i-Size child seats and vehicle seats

with i-Size approval are marked with

i-Size symbol, see illustration.

Top-tether anchors

Top-tether anchors are marked with

the symbol

for a child seat.

Seats, restraints

brackets, fasten the Top-tether strap

to the Top-tether anchors.
ISOFIX child restraint systems of

universal category positions are

marked in the table by IUF

56.

Selecting the right system

The rear seats are the most

convenient location to fasten a child

restraint system.
Children should travel facing

rearwards in the vehicle as long as

possible. This makes sure that the

child's backbone, which is still very

weak, is under less strain in the event

of an accident. Do not use forward

facing child restraint system at all

seats when child's weight is below 13

kg.
Suitable are child restraint systems

that comply with valid UN ECE

regulations. Check local laws and

regulations for mandatory use of child

restraint systems.

The following child restraints are

recommended for the following

weight classes:

● Group 0+:

Römer Baby-Safe Plus installed

in the rearward facing position

with or without ISOFIX base for

children up to 13 kg

● Group I:

RÖMER Duo Plus ISOFIX with or

without ISOFIX and Top-tether

for children from 9 kg to 18 kg

● Group II, Group III:

Römer Kidfix XP with or without

ISOFIX for children from 15 kg to

36 kg
The child is restrained by the seat

belt.
The installation is permitted only

on the outer rear seats. The head

restraint has to be removed.

● Group II, Group III:

Graco Booster for children from

15 kg to 36 kg
The child is restrained by the seat

belt.

The installation is permitted on

the front passenger seat or the

rear seats.

Ensure that the child restraint system

to be installed is compatible with the

vehicle type.
Child seat at the front: Adjust the front

passenger seat to the highest and

fully back longitudinal position with

the backrest straightened.
Child seat at the rear: Move the

vehicle's front seat forward and

straighten the backrest so that the

legs of the child in the forward facing

or the rearward facing child seat do

not touch the vehicle's front seat.
Please follow the child restraint

system manufacturer's instructions to

install the corresponding child

restraint system in the vehicle.
For semi-universal or vehicle specific

child restraint system (ISOFIX or

belted child restraint system), see the
