4.7 Child restraint systems
 When travelling, secure children under 13 years of age that are
smaller than 150 cm, with a suitable and officially approved child re-
straint system.
 Fasten the childrens' seat belts before commencing the journey and
make sure that their seat belts are kept fastened during the journey.
 If a front passenger airbag is fitted in the vehicle, do not use a child re-
straint system (Reboard systems) that faces the back of the front pas-
senger's seat. Follow warning notices in the vehicle.
 Only attach the child restraint system to seats that are specified for
this purpose. We strongly recommend to install child restraint systems
preferably in the second row of seats.
 Never use rearward-facing child restraints on a seat with activated
front airbag . This may lead to death or to serious injuries in chil-
dren.
Fig. 15 Warning notice on child restraint system (front passenger's seat sun visor)
The front passenger's seat is equipped with an airbag. When this airbag is
activated, it is not permitted to use a rearward-facing child restraint system
on the front passenger's seat. In the event of an accident, the triggered air-
bag may cause serious injuries in the child or to its death. A warning notice
(Fig. 15) is attached to the sun visor depicting this hazard.
The airbag of the front passenger's seat can be deactivated. Refer to the
instruction manual of the base vehicle for instructions.
