Child Restraint in Front
DANGER
Seat
The use of a child restraint system in the front
passenger seat can result in serious personal
injury or death to the child from an airbag
deployment.
To reduce risk of injury from an inflating airbag in
an accident, Porsche strongly recommends:
f
Please see the chapter "PASS AIR BAG OFF
INDICATOR LAMP DOES NOT LIGHT UP"
on page 42.
However, there may be serious situations where it
might be necessary to place a child in the front
seat so that he/she can be kept under direct
observation to prevent an immediate risk to the
child (for example, while driving to the doctor or
hospital). The following instructions are provided
to you solely for that purpose.
f
Seek appropriate advice from your authorized
Porsche dealer about the possible installation
of a Porsche child restraint system.
f
If a child restraint system must be fastened to
the passenger's seat, adjust the passenger's
seat as far away from the airbag as possible.
f
If emergency or other serious conditions
require a child to be placed in the front seat,
exercise extreme caution and defensive
driving of your vehicle.
Child restraint system for up to one-year old
children
If the child restraint system must be fastened to
the passenger's seat in exceptional cases:
– When an up to one-year old child is seated
in the child restraint system, the front airbag is
automatically deactivated on the passenger
side.
f
Make sure that the "PASS AIR BAG OFF"
indicator lamp lights up.
f
Adjust the passenger's seat as far away from
the airbag as possible.
h
Child Seat Detection
DANGER
Fault
When the ignition is on and the up to one-year old
child is seated in the child restraint system on the
passenger seat the indicator lamp "PASS AIR BAG
OFF" must be on.
If the "PASS AIR BAG OFF" indicator lamp does not
light up, it could indicate a fault in the system, and
the airbag could inflate in a collision, placing the
child at risk of death or severe injury from the
inflating airbag.
In this case:
f
Child restraint systems facing forwards:
Install on the rear seats.
f
Child restraint systems facing rearwards:
Do not drive with a rearward facing child
restraint system.
f
Have the fault remedied at your nearest
authorized Porsche dealer.
