WARNING
If you secure a child in a child restraint system
on the front-passenger seat and the
PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator lamp is
off, the front-passenger front airbag can
deploy in the event of an accident. The child
could be struck by the airbag. This poses an
increased risk of injury or even fatal injury.
Make sure that the front-passenger front air-
bag has been disabled. The PASSENGER AIR-
BAG OFF indicator lamp must be lit.

WARNING
If the PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF indicator lamp
is lit, the front-passenger front airbag is disa-
bled. It will not be deployed in the event of an
accident and cannot perform its intended pro-
tective function. A person in the front-
passenger seat could then, for example, come
into contact with the vehicle's interior, espe-
cially if the person is sitting too close to the
dashboard. This poses an increased risk of
injury or even fatal injury.
In this case the front-passenger seat may not
be used. Only suitable rearward-facing or
forward-facing child restraint systems may be
installed on the front-passenger seat. Always
observe the information about suitable posi-
tioning of the child restraint system in this
Owner's Manual as well as the child restraint
system manufacturer's installation instruc-
tions.

WARNING
If you secure a child in a forward-facing child
restraint system on the front-passenger seat
and you position the front-passenger seat too
close to the dashboard, in the event of an
accident, the child could:
come into contact with the vehicle's inte-
R
rior if the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indi-
cator lamp is lit, for example
be struck by the airbag if the PASSENGER
R
AIR BAG OFF indicator lamp is off
This poses an increased risk of injury or even
fatal injury.
Move the front-passenger seat as far back as
possible. Always make sure that the shoulder
belt strap is correctly routed from the belt
loop on the vehicle to the shoulder belt guide
on the child restraint system. The shoulder
belt strap must be routed forwards and down-
wards from the belt loop. Always observe the
information about suitable positioning of the
child restraint system in this Owner's Manual
as well as the child restraint system manu-
facturer's installation instructions.
