Road Safety
Seats with the ISOFIX system are very easy to secure thanks to the hooks at the base of the CRS. The only point where doubts might arise is the anchoring of the top tether.

The top tether is a belt with a metal snap hook at the back of the seat which can be lengthened or shortened depending on the anchor point where it is attached, either the base of the trunk or the back of the seat. It is therefore an anti-tipping system that acts as an anchor to attach the child seat to the chassis of the car.
