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 front airbag deploying.
This is especially a risk if the child is in
the immediate vicinity of the front-
passenger front airbag when it deploys.
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 without automatic child seat
recognition on the front-passenger
seat*, if no special child restraint system
with automatic child seat recognition has
been fitted to the front-passenger seat.
R
on vehicles with automatic child seat rec-
ognition on the front-passenger seat*, if
the
5
PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF warn-
ing lamp is not lit.

appropriate warning sticker on the dash-
board as well as on both sides of the sun
visor on the front-passenger side.
