"Universal" category child restraint systems can be recognised by their orange approval label.

Example: approval label on the child restraint system

1

If you use a category 0 or 0+ baby car seat on a rear seat, you must adjust the driver's or front-passenger

seat so that the seat does not come in contact with the baby car seat.

2

Vehicles with automatic child seat recognition in the front-passenger seat: a child restraint system of the

"Universal" category with a transponder for automatic child seat recognition must be fitted. The 45
indicator lamp must be on.

3

Move the front-passenger seat to the rearmost and highest position, the backrest to an almost vertical

position, and the belt height adjustment to the lowest position. For seats with electrical adjustment, the seat

cushion angle must be set to the highest and most upright position.
