Risk of injury
If the front-passenger front airbag is not
disabled:
R
a child secured in a child restraint system
on the front-passenger seat could be
seriously and even fatally injured by the
front-passenger airbag deploying. This is
especially likely if the child is in the imme-
diate vicinity of the front-passenger front
airbag when it is deployed.
R
a child must never be secured on the
front-passenger seat in a rearward-facing
child restraint system. Only secure a
rearward-facing child restraint system on
a suitable rear seat.
R
always move the front-passenger seat to
the rearmost position if you secure a
child in a forward-facing child restraint
system on the front-passenger seat.
The front-passenger front airbag is not dis-
abled:
R
on vehicles without automatic child seat
recognition in the front-passenger seat*
R
on vehicles with automatic child seat rec-
ognition on the front-passenger seat* if
there is no child restraint system with
automatic child seat recognition fitted to
the front-passenger seat.
R
on vehicles with automatic child seat rec-
ognition on the front-passenger seat* if
the
