Adjusting the ISOFIX connectors
The two ISOFIX connectors on the TAKATA I-SIZE
BASE (PLUS) must be adjusted, according to the
position of the ISOFIX points in the vehicle. Each of
the connectors can independently be set to one of six
different lengths, with the various settings indicated by
fi gures 1 to 5 on the top of them. Setting six is
obtained when the connectors are at full extension,
and is indicated by the absence of any fi gure.
Step 1 – Unlock the ISOFIX length adjuster
[I-SIZE_BASE_012] Press the left-hand button on the
ISOFIX length adjuster as far in as possible and hold
it in position. The adjuster is positioned on the inner
side of the TAKATA I-SIZE BASE (PLUS).
Step 2 – Adjust the ISOFIX connector
At the same time, pull the left-hand ISOFIX connector,
positioned on the outside of the TAKATA I-SIZE
BASE (PLUS), into the required position.
Step 3 – Lock the ISOFIX length adjuster
Release the button and connector, and check whether
the latter is locked in place. This is indicated by a
click, and a green marking on the button.
NOTE!
The two ISOFIX connectors must be adjusted
independently. Repeat steps 1 to 3 for the right-hand
connector.
WARNING!
[I-SIZE_BASE_013] When securing the TAKATA
I-SIZE BASE (PLUS) in the vehicle, ensure that both
ISOFIX connectors are set to the same position. To do
this, check that the fi gures on the top of the connectors
match up (or that both are blank). Failure to observe
this notice may seriously risk your child's safety, and
the safety of other passengers, in the event of an
accident.
Step 4 – Unlock the ISOFIX connectors
[I-SIZE_BASE_014] Unlock the left and right-hand
ISOFIX connectors, by taking hold of the release
sliders on each, moving the locking sliders of the
release sliders down and, at the same time, pulling the
release sliders towards the support leg. The connectors
have been correctly unlocked if you can see a red
marking on the top of each slider. If green markings
are shown, the connectors are still locked in place.

Releasing the rear connection hooks
[I-SIZE_BASE_015] The TAKATA MINI I-SIZE or
TAKATA MIDI I-SIZE (PLUS) is attached to the

at the front and rear. To free the TAKATA MINI
I-SIZE or TAKATA MIDI I-SIZE (PLUS) from the
TAKATA I-SIZE BASE (PLUS), you need only to
release the rear hooks.
The rear hooks unlock together, so you only need to
push down one of the release elements on the exterior
of the connection arms. The connection hooks have
been correctly unlocked if you can see a red marking
on the top of each release element.
If green markings are shown, both, or in case of
partially green markings possibly only one of the
hooks are still locked in place. Please always also see
the warnings in the instructions for each seat:
