Table for location of ISOFIX child seats

The table gives a recommendation for which ISOFIX child seats suit which locations, and for what size of child.

The child seat must be approved in accordance with UN Reg R44 and the car model must be included in the manufacturer's vehicle list.

 Note

Always read the owner's manual section on installing a child seat before installing one in the car.

X: Not suitable for ISOFIX child restraint systems.

 Warning

Never use a rear-facing child seat on the front passenger seat if the passenger airbag is activated.

 Note

If an i-Size/ISOFIX child seat has no size classification, the car model must be included on the vehicle list for the child seat.

 Note

Volvo recommends contacting an authorised Volvo dealer for information about which i-Size/ISOFIX child seats Volvo recommends.
  1. 1 For child restraint systems with the ISOFIX fixture system there is a size classification to help users choose the right type of child restraint system. The size class can be read on the label for the child restraint system.
  2. 2 Works for the installation of i-Size child restraint systems and ISOFIX child restraint systems (IL) if the passenger seat is equipped with ISOFIX mountings (varies depending on market) and is i-Size-marked. The upper mounting point for child restraint systems is only available for an i-Size-marked position.
  3. 3 The seat cushion extension must always be retracted for the installation of child restraint systems.
  4. 4 For child restraint systems with support legs, adjust the seat to a more upright position.
  5. 5 Volvo recommends: Volvo infant seat i-Size which is secured using the ISOFIX fixture system (type approval E1 000008).
  6. 6 Applicable if the car is not fitted with an ISOFIX bracket.
  7. 7 Adjust the backrest so that the head restraint does not interfere with the child seat.
  8. 8 Volvo recommends rear-facing child seat for children in this mass group.
  9. 9 Volvo recommends: Volvo Easy access rear-facing child seat i-Size (type approval E1-010016) and BeSafe iZi Kid X2 i-Size (type approval E4-129R-000002).
