Choosing a Child Seat

The Owner’s Guide for your Ford vehicle provides details of the child restraints recommended by Ford for your model.

When you are purchasing an ISOFIX child restraint, make sure that you know that you know your child’s correct weight and height, for the intended seating locations.

Some child restraints (known as semi-universal child restraints) cannot be fitted to certain vehicles. Therefore, it’s important that you make sure that the child seat manufacturer lists your vehicle as suitable for use with the type of semi-universal child seat you are planning to buy.

ISOFIX Child Restraints

ISOFIX seats are not fitted with the car’s seat belts. Instead they have connecting arms that slot into ISOFIX points which were built into the vehicle when it was manufactured. An additional top tether or support leg is used to prevent the restraint from tilting or rotating in an impact.

To find out if your vehicle has ISOFIX points, check your vehicle’s owner's vehicle by selecting the vehicle model from the Owner’s Manual Information section below. 

ISOFIX child restraints can be identified by the following symbol.

 

Top Tether Points
