1. If children are to be carried in the rear seat
positions, it is recommended that the rear
door interior handles are disabled. To
change the child lock settings:-
• Open the door to access the child
safety lock.
• Insert the emergency key into the slot
and rotate a quarter of a turn, to enable
or disable the interior door handle, as
required.
2. To install an ISOFIX child seat (not
Australia):-
• Raise the head restraint on the relevant
seat.
• Locate the lower anchor bars which are
accessible through the gap between
the seat back and seat base. Insert the
protective guides supplied with the
child seat as shown. The insertion
positions for the guides are identified
by the ISOFIX labels.
• Slide the child seat locking mechanism
into the protective sleeves and onto the
anchor bars.
• 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 always 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.
3. To adjust the seat belt height:-
• Press to release the catch.
• With the catch depressed slide the
mechanism up or down to the required
height. Release the catch and ensure
the locking mechanism has engaged.
The use of comfort clips or devices
that would create slack in the seat
belt system, is not advised.
No modifications or additions
should be made by the user which
will either prevent the seat belt
adjusting devices from operating
to remove slack, or prevent the
seat belt assembly from being
adjusted to remove slack.
4. Draw the belt out smoothly, ensure that the
belt height, the seat, and your position on
the seat are correct.
Seat belts are designed to bear
upon the bony structure of the
body, and should be worn low
across the front of the pelvis or the
pelvis, chest and shoulders, as
applicable; wearing the lap
section of the belt across the
abdominal area must be avoided.
Seat belts should be adjusted as
firmly as possible, consistent with
comfort, to provide the protection
for which they have been
designed. A slack belt will greatly
reduce the protection afforded to
the wearer.
Belts should not be worn with the
straps twisted.
Each belt assembly must only be
used by one occupant; it is
dangerous to put a belt around a
child being carried on the
occupant's lap.
The occupants of the front seats
should not travel with the seat
back at more than 30 degrees from
upright. Doing so will reduce the
protection afforded by the seat
belt.
