Installation of child restraint using
the standard safety belt
Child restraints that are approved for rear-
ward facing installation in the rear seat can
be positioned in any of the three rear places.
Make sure that it is possible to fit it in accor-
dance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
When fitting child restraints in cars you
must always read the instructions sup-
plied by the child restraint manufacturer.
If fitting a child restraint that is intended to be
secured in position by the standard safety
belt, make use of the locking function of the
belt.
Locking the belt lessens the risk that the
seat will work loose while the car is in
motion.

seat.
2 Route the belt in the restraint according
to the installation instruction of the
restraint.

Clicking sound indicates that the lock
function is in work.
4 Pull the shoulder belt tight to secure the
child restraint in position.

pulling on the belt. The belt must not
unreel.
The safety belt locking function will be deac-
tivated when the safety belt is retracted.

buckle.
2 Disengage the safety belt from the child
restraint, according to the instructions
from the child restraint manufacturer.

ing sound ceases.
