restraints approved for this mass group.

• UF = Suitable for Forward-facing universal 

category restraints approved for this mass 
group.

* Always ensure that the passenger airbag has 
been disabled before using a child restraint in 
this seating position. The seat back needs to be 
adjusted to the fully upright position.  See

(page 62).

where children should be carried when 
travelling in a vehicle, is subject to change. It is 
the responsibility of the driver to comply with 
all regulations in force.

BOOSTER CUSHIONS

In a situation where a child is too large to fit 
into a child safety seat, but is still too small to 
safely fit the three point belt properly, a booster 
seat is recommended for maximum safety. 
Follow the manufacturer's instructions for 
fitting and use, then adjust the seat belt to suit.

ISOFIX ANCHOR POINTS

Both of the outer seat positions on the rear seat 
are equipped to accept ISOFIX restraints.

This symbol is shown on a label 
sewn into the seats to indicate the 
position of the ISOFIX lower 

anchorages.

WARNINGS

Do not attempt to fit ISOFIX restraints 
to the centre seating position. The 

anchor bars are not designed to hold an 
ISOFIX restraint in this position.

If the restraint is not correctly 
anchored, there is a significant risk of 

injury to the child in the event of a collision or 
emergency braking.

Child restraint anchorages are 
designed to withstand only loads 

imposed by correctly fitted child restraints. 
Under no circumstances are they to be used 
for adult seat belts, harnesses, or for 
attaching other items or equipment to the 
vehicle.

If removing a head restraint in order to 
fit a child restraint, always secure the 

head restraint when storing it. If left loose in 
the vehicle it may cause death or serious 
injury during sudden braking or an impact.

Installing an ISOFIX child seat

2. Lift the velcro flap to expose the ISOFIX 

locking mechanism.

3. Slide the child seat into the locking 

mechanism.

4. Test the security of the child restraint. To 

do this attempt to pull the restraint away 
from the vehicle seat and twist the restraint 
from side to side. Even if the restraint 
appears secure you should still check the 
anchor points visually to ensure correct 
attachment.

Note: Always ensure that if an upper tether is 
provided, it is fitted and tightened correctly.

Tether anchorages are provided at each rear 
outboard seating position.

Note: A tether anchorage is provided for the 
centre seat position, but should only be used 
when a non- ISOFIX child seat with a tether is 
used in this seating position.

CHILD SAFETY LOCKS

Child safety locks are fitted to the rear doors to 
allow you to prevent accidental opening of the 
doors when the vehicle is in motion.

If children are to be carried in the rear seat 
positions, it is recommended that the rear door 
interior handles are disabled.

Note: For convenience the rear door interior 
handles should be re-enabled when carrying 
adult passengers in the rear seat positions.

To change the child lock settings :-

1. Open the door to access the child safety 

lock.

2. Insert the emergency key into the slot, and 

rotate a quarter of a turn to enable, or 
disable the interior door handle as 
required.
