WARNING
If the 4 PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF indica-
tor lamp does not light up when the child
restraint system is fitted, the front-passenger
airbag has not been disabled. If the front-
passenger airbag deploys, the child could be
seriously or even fatally injured.
Proceed as follows:
do not use a rearward-facing child restraint
R
system on the front-passenger seat.
fit a rearward-facing child restraint system
R
on a suitable rear seat.
or
only use a forward-facing child restraint
R
system on the front-passenger seat and
move the front-passenger seat to the rear-
most position.
have the automatic child seat recognition
R
checked at a qualified specialist workshop.
To ensure that the automatic child seat rec-
ognition on the front-passenger seat func-
tions/communicates correctly, never place
objects, e.g. a cushion, under the child
restraint system. The entire base of the child
restraint system must always rest on the seat
cushion. An incorrectly fitted child restraint
system cannot perform its intended protec-
tive function in the event of an accident, and
could lead to injuries.
