- Be sure to observe the installation and operating instructions provided by the manufacturer for the child restraint system being used.
- For a child restraint system in the "Universal" or "Semi-Universal" category, make sure that the system has been approved for the vehicle seat. Observe the notes under "Suitability of seats for attaching belt-secured child restraint systems" More.
- When using a category 0/0+ baby car seat and a category I rearward-facing child restraint system on a rear seat: adjust the front seat so that the seat does not touch the child restraint system.
- The backrest of the forward-facing child restraint system must, as far as possible, be resting on the seat backrest of the rear seat.
- For certain child restraint systems of weight category II or III there may be limitations for the maximum size setting, e.g. due to possible contact with the roof.
- The child restraint system must not be put under strain between the roof and the seat cushion and/or be fitted facing the wrong direction. If possible, adjust the seat cushion angle as appropriate.
- The child restraint system must not be put under strain by the head restraint. Adjust the head restraints accordingly.
- Make sure that the child's feet do not touch the front seat. If necessary, move the front seat slightly forwards.
The entire base of the child restraint system must always rest on the sitting surface of the rear seat.
The shoulder belt strap must be routed forwards and downwards from the seat belt outlet.
