Child seat - ISOFIX

ISOFIX is a fixture system for car child seats

(p. 44) that is based on an international stand-

ard.

Mounting points for the ISOFIX fixture system

are concealed behind the lower section of the

rear seat backrest, in the outer seats.
The location of the mounting points is indi-

cated by symbols in the backrest upholstery

(see preceding illustration).
Press the seat cushion down to access the

mounting points.
Always follow the manufacturer's installation

instructions when connecting a child seat to

the ISOFIX mounting points.

X: The ISOFIX position is not suitable for ISOFIX child seats in this weight class and/or size class.
IL: Suitable for specific ISOFIX child seats. These child seats may be intended for a particular car model, limited or semi-universal categories.
IUF: Suitable for front-facing ISOFIX child seats that are universally approved in this weight class.

Volvo recommends rear-facing child seats for this group.

Make sure you select the right size class

(p. 53) of child seat with ISOFIX (p. 53) fixture

system.

02 Safety

Child seats - upper mounting points

The car is equipped with upper mounting

points for certain front-facing child seats

(p. 44). These mounting points are located on

the rear of the seat.

The upper mounting points are primarily

intended for use with front-facing child seats.

Volvo recommends that small children should

sit in rear-facing child seats to as late an age

as possible.

NOTE

Fold the head restraints in order to facili-

tate fitting this type of child seat in cars

with folding head restraints on the outer

seats.

NOTE

In cars with a cargo cover over the lug-

gage compartment, this must be removed

before child seats can be attached to the

securing points.

For detailed information on how the child seat

should be tensioned in the upper mounting

points, see the seat manufacturer's instruc-

tions.

WARNING

The child seat's straps must always be

drawn through the hole in the head

restraint leg before they are tensioned at

the attachment point.
