trol lamp on the dash panel will be lit. If you
cannot disable the front passenger front air-
bag and it remains activated, it is forbidden
to transport children on the front passenger
seat
.
Things to note if using a child seat on the
front passenger seat:
The front passenger front airbag must be
disabled
when using a rear-facing child
se
at page 17.
The seat backrest of the front passenger
seat must be upright.
The front passenger seat must be moved as
far back as possible.
The seat backrest of the front passenger
seat must be upright.
Suitable child seats
The child seat must be authorised by the
manufacturer especially for use on a front
passenger seat with a front or side airbag.
Universal seats for children can be fitted in
the front passenger seat, in groups 0, 0+, 1,
2 or 3 according to the ECE-R 44 regulation.
WARNING
If a child seat is mounted on the front passen-
ger seat, the risk of the child sustaining se-
vere or fatal injuries in the event of an acci-
dent increases. Rear-facing child seats must
never be mounted on the front passenger
seat when the front passenger front airbag is
enabled. This is life-threatening to the child
should the front airbag deploy, as the child
seat would be struck by the inflated airbag
and thrown against the seat backrest.
WARNING
If, in exceptional circumstances, a child must
be transported in a rear-facing child seat on
the front passenger seat, strictly observe the
following:
Always disable the front passenger front
airbag and leave it disabled.
The child seat must be approved by the
manufacturer for use on a front passenger
seat with front and side airbag.
Follow the installation instructions of the
child seat manufacturer and observe the
warnings.
Move the front passenger seat as far back
as possible and adjust it to its highest posi-
tion to keep as far away as possible from the
front airbag.
Move the seat backrest to the upright posi-
tion.
Children must always be protected with an
approved child restraint system suited to
their height and weight.
Use of the child seat on the rear seat
If a child seat is mounted on the rear seat,
adapt the position of the front passenger
seat so that the child has enough space.
Therefore, adapt the front passenger seat to
the size of the child seat and the height of
the child. Ensure the passenger is in the cor-
rect position page 6.
Suitable child seats
The manufacturer must authorise the child
seat for use in the rear seats with side air-
bags.
Universal seats for children can be fitted in
the passenger seat, in groups 0, 0+, 1, 2 or 3
according to the ECE-R 44 regulation.
The rear seats are suitable for child seats
with the
ISOFIX system s
pec
ially designed
for this type of vehicle in accordance with
regulation ECE-R 44.
ISOFIX child seats approved for rear seats
ISOFIX child seats are divided into the follow-
ing certified categories: “universal”, “semi-
universal” or “specific categories for the ve-
hicle”.
If the ISOFIX child seat is certified “univer-
sal”, it must be supported by the lower an-
chor points and the Top Tether retaining
strap.
