WARNING
Warning - particular hazard! Never use a child safety seat on the
front passenger seat in which the child is seated with its back
facing the direction of travel. This child safety seat is positioned in
the deployment area of the front passenger airbag. The airbag may
cause the child severe, or even fatal injuries, in the event of it being
deployed.
This is also clearly stated on the sticker which is located on the
centre column of the front passenger side. The sticker is visible
upon opening the front passenger door. The next warning sticker
is located on the windscreen near the front passenger seat.
It is essential to always switch off ⇒ page 154 the front
passenger airbag when attaching a child safety seat on the front
passenger seat where the child is seated with its back facing in
direction of travel (in some countries also when the child is facing
the direction of travel). If this is not done, there is a risk of the child
suffering severe or even fatal injuries if the front passenger airbag
is deployed. In certain countries national legal provisions also
require that the side or head passenger airbags be deactivated.
When transporting a child on the front passenger seat, please
comply with the appropriate national regulations regarding the use
of child safety seats.
If the front passenger airbag has been switched off by a Škoda
dealer using the vehicle system tester, the side and head
passenger airbag* remains switched on. The national legal provi-
sions in certain countries require that both the front, side and head
airbags be deactivated. Please comply with any differing national
legal regulations regarding the use of child safety seats.
If a child safety seat in which the child faces in the direction of
travel is used on the front passenger seat, the front passenger seat
must be moved back fully.
