Child restraint system for up to one-year old
children
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.
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
Do not install a child restraint system on the
passenger‘s seat.
f
Have the fault remedied at your nearest
authorized Porsche dealer.
Child restraint system for children older than
one year
Your vehicle is equipped with occupant sensing for
the passenger's seat in accordance with
U.S. Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 208.
Depending on the weight, body positioning and
shape acting on the passenger's seat, the
passenger's airbag will automatically be switched
on or off.
Small adult passengers
f
Make sure that the PASS AIR BAG OFF indicator
lamp does not light up.
When the ignition is on and the small adult
passenger is seated on the passenger seat, the
indicator lamp “PASS AIR BAG OFF” must be off.
If the “PASS AIR BAG OFF” indicator lamp lights up,
it could indicate a fault in the system.
In this case:
f
Have the fault remedied at your nearest
authorized Porsche dealer.
Automatic locking retractor
The safety belt for the passenger seat is equipped
with an automatic locking retractor for securing
the child restraint system. When activated, this
retractor allows you to securely fasten the child
restraint system in place so that inadvertent
movements will not occur.
Before transporting a child on the passenger seat:
f
Please see the chapter “CHILD RESTRAINT
EQUIPMENT” on page 40.
f
After fastening the child restraint system, do
not adjust the seat in any direction.
Moving the seat could adjust the safety belt
against the child restraint and cause the “PASS AIR
BAG OFF” indicator lamp to go off and activate the
airbag system.
f
Check the condition of the passenger airbag
system shown by the indicator lamp in the
overhead operating console.
