The PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF and PASSENGER
AIR BAG ON indicator lamps are part of the
front passenger front airbag deactivation
system.
The indicator lamps display the status of the
front passenger front airbag:
R
PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF lights up: the
front passenger front airbag is deactiva-
ted. It will then not be deployed in the
event of an accident.
R
PASSENGER AIR BAG ON lights up: the front
passenger front airbag is activated. The
front passenger front airbag may deploy
during an accident.
If the front passenger seat is occupied, make
sure that the status of the front passenger
front airbag is correct depending on the sit-
uation both before and during the journey:
R
Children in a child restraint system:
whether the front passenger front airbag
should be enabled or disabled depends on
the child restraint system fitted and the
age and size of the child. Be sure to observe
the notes on "Children in the vehicle"
( Y page 42). There, you will also find
information on rearward- or forward-
facing child restraint systems on the front
passenger seat.
R
All other persons: the PASSENGER AIR BAG
ON indicator lamp must be lit. The front
passenger front airbag is activated. Be
sure to read the notes on "Seat belts"
( Y page 38) and "Airbags" ( Y page 40).
There, you can also find information on the
correct seat position.
Observe the information on the airbag deac-
tivation system of the front passenger front
airbag (

Travelling safely with children in the
vehicle
Observe carefully when children trav-
elling in the vehicle
Being consistent
i
Be sure to observe the safety notes rele-
vant to the situation. In doing so, you will
be able to identify possible risks and avoid
dangers when children are travelling in
the vehicle ( Y page 43).
Bear in mind that negligence when securing
the child in the child restraint system may
have serious consequences. Always be con-
sistent and secure a child carefully before
each journey.
To improve protection for children younger
than twelve years old and under 1.50 m in
height, smart recommends you always
observe the following notes:
R
Always secure the child in a child restraint
system suitable for your smart vehicle.
R
The child restraint system must be appro-
priate to the age, weight and size of the
child.
R
The vehicle seat must be suitable for the
child restraint system to be fitted
( Y page 46).
Accident statistics show that children
secured on the rear seats are safer than chil-
dren secured on the front seats. For this rea-
son, smart strongly advises that you fit a
child restraint system on a rear seat.

The child restraint system must be appro-
priate to the age, weight and size of the child.
