to change position. (Other items with a shape
similar to a key can be used.)

Never place a child in a child seat or on a
booster cushion in the front passenger
seat. This also applies to persons shorter

Deactivated airbag (passenger seat):
Persons taller than 140 cm (4 ft 7) must
never sit in the passenger seat.
Failure to follow the advice given above

passenger airbag (SRS), but does not
have PACOS, the airbag will always be
activated.
