58 n Transporting children safely
Installing child-restraint systems
Follow the child-restraint system
manufacturer's instructions when
selecting, installing and using child-
restraint systems. Otherwise the degree
of protection can be reduced.
<
Commercially available child restraint
systems are designed for securing with
a lap belt or with the lap belt section
of a three-point belt. Incorrectly or
improperly installed child restraint sys-
tems can increase the risk of injury for
children. Always follow the instructions
for installing the system exactly.
On front passenger seat:
Before mounting a child restraint
system on the front passenger
seat, make sure that the front and side
airbag on the front passenger side are
deactivated, as otherwise there is an
increased risk of injury if the airbags are
triggered.
<
Before mounting a universal child-
restraint system, move the front pas-
senger seat into the highest position to
achieve the best possible belt routing.
Do not change this seat height.
Child-restraint system security
All rear safety belts and the safety belt
for the front passenger can be locked to
prevent them from being pulled out,
enabling them to be used for securing
child restraint systems.
Locking safety belt:
1. Secure child restraint system with
the belt
2. Pull out belt webbing completely
3. Allow belt webbing to be pulled in
and pull taut against child restraint
system. The safety belt is locked.
Unlocking safety belt:
1. Open belt buckle

completely
