Should it be necessary to carry a child on
the passenger side front seat in a rear facing
child restraint system, the passenger side
front airbag and side bag must be
deactivated through the display main menu
(see the "Display" paragraph, "Knowing the
instrument panel" chapter), verifying
deactivation by checking whether the
OFF LED has switched on in the trim
located on the dashboard. Move the
passenger's seat as far back as possible to
avoid contact between the child seat and the
dashboard.
63)
Do not move the front or rear seat if a
child is seated on it or on the dedicated child
restraint system
FITTING "UNIVERSAL" CHILD
RESTRAINT SYSTEM (with seat
belts)
GROUP 0 and 0+
65) 66) 67) 68) 69)
Babies up to 13 kg must be carried with a
rear facing child restraint system of a
type as shown in fig. 48 which, supporting
the head, does not induce stress on the
neck in the event of sudden
decelerations.
The child restraint system is secured by
the vehicle seat belts, as shown in
fig. 48 and it must restrain the child in
turn with its own belts.
GROUP 1

Children of weight from 9 to 18 kg may
be transported in forward facing child
restraint systems fig. 49.

GROUP 2
65) 66) 67) 68) 69)
Children from 15 to 25 kg may be
restrained directly by the car seat belts
fig. 50.
In this case, the child restraint system is
used to position the child correctly with
respect to the seat belts so that the
diagonal belt section crosses the child’s
chest and not the neck, and the lower part
is snug on the pelvis not the abdomen.
GROUP 3
65) 66) 67) 68) 69)
For children between 22 kg and 36 kg,
there are dedicated restraint systems
that allow the seat belt to be worn
correctly.
The fig. 51 shows the correct child
positioning on the rear seat.
Children over 1.50 m in height can wear
seat belts like adults.

SAFETY
PASSENGER SEAT COMPLIANCE WITH REGULATIONS ON UNIVERSAL CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM USE
According to the European Directive 2000/3/EC the suitability of each passenger seat position for the fixing of universal child
restraint systems is shown in the following table:

(*) IMPORTANT: NEVER fit a rearward-facing child seat in the front passenger seat if the airbag is active. If you wish to fit a rearward-facing child seat
in the front passenger seat, first deactivate the relative airbag (see instructions in the paragraph (Supplementary protection system (SRS) –
Airbag”)
U (**) With a height adjustable seat, put the backrest in the vertical position.
U= suitable for child restraint systems of the “Universal” category, according to European Standard EEC-R44 for the specified “Groups”.
WARNING
64)
Child restraint systems with Isofix attachments are available for a safe anchoring to the seat without using the car seat belts. See paragraph
"Isofix child restraint system setup" for the fitting instructions.
65)
The diagram is indicative and for fitting purposes only. Fit the child restraint system according to the instructions, which must be included.
66)
When the child restraint system is not used, secure it with the seat belt or with the ISOFIX anchorages, or remove it from the vehicle. Do not
leave it unsecured inside the passenger compartment. In this way, in the case of sudden braking or an accident, it will not cause injuries to the
occupants.
67)
After installing a child restraint system, do not move the seat: always remove the child restraint system before making any adjustment.
68)
Always make sure that the diagonal section of the seat belt does not pass under the arms or behind the back of the child. In the event of an
accident the seat belt will not be able to secure the child, with the risk of injury, including fatal injury.Therefore the child must always wear the seat
belt correctly.
69)
Incorrect fitting of the child restraint system may result in an inefficient protection system. In the event of an accident the child restraint
system may become loose and the child may be injured, even fatally. When fitting a restraint system for newborns or children, strictly comply with
the instructions provided by the Manufacturer.
71
ISOFIX CHILD RESTRAINT
SYSTEM SETUP
The vehicle is equipped with ISOFIX
anchorages, a new standard which makes
fitting a child restraint system quick,
simple and safe.
Traditional child restraint systems can be
fitted alongside Isofix child restraint
systems on different seats in the same
car.
As an example, fig. 52 shows an example
of a Universal Isofix child restraint
system for weight group 1.
65)
The other weight groups are covered by
specific Isofix child restraint systems,
which can be used only if specifically
tested for this car (see list of cars
provided with the child restraint system).
IMPORTANT The central rear seat is not
approved for any type of Isofix child
restraint system.
INSTALLING A UNIVERSAL ISOFIX
CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM
Proceed as follows:
attach the child restraint system to
the special lower metal rings 2 fig. 53,
located inside the rear seat backrest (to
access the rings lift hinge 1);
secure the upper belt (available
together with the child restraint system)
to the special attachments 1
fig. 54 located in the rear part of the
backrest.
It is possible to have a mixed assembly of
traditional child restraint systems and
Universal Isofix ones. Remember that
when using a Universal Isofix child
restraint system, you can only use
approved child restraint systems with
the marking ECE R44 (R44/03 or
superior) “Universal Isofix”.
The Universal Isofix "Duo Plus" child seat
and the special "G 0/1 S" seat are
available from Lineaccessori MOPAR
®
.
For any further installation/usage details,
refer to the “Instruction Manual”
provided with the child restraint system.
