Tether Anchors - Aston Martin DB 9 2013 Manual

These conditions can cause the weight of a correctly seated passenger
to be incorrectly interpreted by the front passenger sensing system.
The person in the front passenger seat can appear heavier or lighter
due to the conditions described.
If the PASS AIRBAG OFF symbol is ON, do the following:
The driver and adult passengers should check for any objects that
may be lodged underneath the front passenger seat or cargo
interfering with the seat.
If objects are lodged or cargo is interfering with the seat take the
following steps to remove the obstruction:
1. Set the ignition to OFF.
2. Check for any objects lodged underneath the front passenger
seat or cargo interfering with the seat.
3. Remove the obstruction(s) (if found).
4. Start the engine.
5. Wait at least two minutes and verify that the PASS AIRBAG OFF
symbol is no longer ON.
If the PASS AIRBAG OFF symbol stays ON, this may or may not be a
problem due to the front passenger sensing system. Do not attempt
to repair or service the system. Take the vehicle immediately to the
nearest Aston Martin Dealer.
Determining if the System is Operational
The warning symbol in the instrument cluster shows the status of the
system. A problem with the system is shown by one or more of the
following:
• The warning symbol will either flash or stay ON.
• The warning symbol will not come ON immediately after the
ignition is set to ON.
If either of these conditions occur, even intermittently, have the
restraint system serviced at your Aston Martin Dealer immediately.
Unless serviced, the system may not operate correctly in a collision.

Tether Anchors

Warning: An infant or child that is not properly restrained
can be seriously injured or killed in a crash. Seat belts are
designed for adults and larger children; infants and smaller
children must be restrained in an approved child safety seat.
Warning: Child restraint anchorages are designed to
withstand only those loads imposed by correctly installed child
restraints. Under no circumstances are they to be used for adult
seatbelts, harnesses or for attaching other items or equipment to
the vehicle.
Warning: Always follow the child seat manufacturer's
instructions. Not following the child-seat manufacturer's
instructions when installing the child seat is dangerous.
Warning: Make sure the child seat tether strap is free from
obstructions above and below. Do not place any items on the
tether strap between the child seat and the tether anchor point.
Do not place tether strap over any items between the child seat
and the tether anchor point.
