CONTROLS
PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF indicator lamp is il‐
luminated.
Follow the information on the front passenger
sun visor.
NEVER use a rearward facing child restraint on a
seat protected by an ACTIVE AIRBAG in front of
it, DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY to the CHILD
can occur.
Seat position and height
Before installing a universal child restraint sys‐
tem, move the front passenger seat as far back
as it will go, if possible, adjust to a mid-height po‐
sition. This seat position and height achieves the
best possible routing of the belt and protection in
the event of an accident.
If the upper attachment point of the seat belt is
located ahead of the child seat's belt guide, care‐
fully move the front passenger seat forwards until
the best possible belt guidance is achieved.
Backrest width
With adjustable backrest width: before fitting a
child restraint system on the front passenger
seat, fully open the backrest width. Do not
change the backrest width from this point on and
do not call up a memory position.
