Automatic locking retractor
The safety belts for the front passenger and the
rear seats are 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.
Danger!
The use of a child restraint system on the
front passenger seat can result in serious
personal injury or death to the child from an
air bag deployment.
To reduce risk of injury from an inflating air
bag in an accident, Porsche strongly
recommends:
f
Under all normal circumstances, the child seat
must be placed in the rear.
Do not use a child restraint system on the front
passenger seat.
If there are emergency reasons for transporting a
child in the front passenger seat, use the
automatic locking retractor function and follow the
other safety instructions on the previous pages in
this section.
PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator lamp
Danger!
Risk of serious personal injury or death to the
child, when excessive force is acting on the
passenger's seat due to the seat belt and the
passenger's air bag is switched on uninten-
tionally.
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
“PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF” indicator lamp to
go off and activate the air bag system.
f
Check the condition of the passenger air
bag system shown by the indicator lamp
in the overhead operating console.
