WARNING (Continued)
Pay particular attention to the information provided by the manufacturer
■
of the child safety seat regarding the correct routing of the belt. Seat belts
which are not correctly adjusted can themselves cause injuries even in mi-
nor accidents.
Safety belts must be checked to ensure that they are running properly.
■
One should also ensure that the belt is not damaged by sharp-edged fit-
tings.
When installing the child seat on the back seat, the corresponding front
■
seat must be adjusted so that there is no contact between the front seat
and the child seat or the child being transported in a child seat.
Before installing a forward-facing child seat with backrest, remove the
■
headrest

91. After removing the child seat, refit the head re-
straints.

Safety
Read and observe
on page 33 first.
Never use a rearward-facing child restraint system on a seat which is pro-
tected by an active airbag. This could cause serious injury to the child, or
even death.
This is indicated also on stickers that are located at the following positions.
▶
On the front passenger's sun visor
▶
On the B-pillar on the front passenger side
The following instructions must be followed when using a child seat on the
front passenger seat.
▶
The front passenger airbag must be deactivated if using a rear-facing child
seat
»
.
If possible, adjust the front passenger seat backrest so that it is as vertical, so
▶
as to ensure secure contact between the passenger seat backrest and the
back of the child seat.
▶
If possible, move the front passenger seat backwards so that there is no con-
tact between the front passenger seat and the child seat behind it.
▶
Set the height-adjustable front passenger seat as high up as possible.
Set the front passenger seat belt as high up as possible.
▶
With child safety seats in groups 2 and 3, make sure that the loop-around fit-
▶
tings attached to the child seat headrest is positioned in front of or at the
same height as the loop-around fittings on the B pillar on the passenger side.
Adjust the height of the front passenger seat belt so that the belt does not
"jam" in the return pulley. In the event of an accident, there is the risk of in-
jury to the neck of the child carried due to the seat belt!
WARNING
Never use a rear-facing child seat on the front passenger seat if the pas-
■
senger airbag is activated. This child safety seat is positioned in the deploy-
ment area of the front passenger airbag. The airbag may cause the child se-
vere, or even fatal injuries, in the event of it being deployed.
As soon as the child seat, in which the child is transported with their back
■
in the direction of travel, is no longer used in the front passenger seat, the
front passenger airbag should be switched on again.
