i-Size child seats

i-Size child seats have two latches that are anchored to the two rings A.

These i-Size child seats also have:

- either an upper strap that is attached to ring B.

- or a support leg that rests on the vehicle floor, compatible with the approved i-Size seat position.

Their role is to prevent the child seat from tipping forward in the event of a collision.

For more information on the ISOFIX mountings, refer to the corresponding section.

In accordance with European regulations, this table indicates the options for installing i-Size child seats on seats in the vehicle fitted with ISOFIX

mountings approved for i-Size.
