Before installing a child seat on the front passenger seat:

  • check that the child seat can be installed on this seat;
  • you must deactivate the passenger airbag for a rear-facing child seat.

To deactivate the airbag: with the vehicle stationary and the ignition switched off, push and turn the lock 1 to the OFF position.

When the ignition is switched on, you must check that the 2_ALL_557_1_pictogramme.png warning light is illuminated on the display 2.

DANGER

The markings on the dashboard and the labels A on each side of the passenger sun visor 3 (see example of label above) are provided to remind you of these instructions.

Front passenger airbag activation

You should reactivate the airbag as soon as you remove the child seat from the front passenger seat to ensure the protection of the front passenger in the event of an impact.

To reactivate the airbag: with the vehicle stationary and the ignition off, push and turn the lock 1 to ON position.

When the ignition is switched on, you must check that the 2_ALL_053_1_pictogramme.png warning light is off and that the warning light appears on the display 2 during approximately one minute each time the engine is started.

The front passenger airbag is activated.

Operating faults

In the event of a fault with the front passenger airbag activation/deactivation system, the 2_ALL_094_1_pictogramme.png and 1_ALL_036_1_pictogramme.png warning lights are displayed on the instrument panel. Switch off the ignition and check the position of the lock 1.

Switch the ignition back on: the warning lights go out.

If the problem persists, it signals a system failure. In this case, it is prohibited for a rear-facing child seat to be fitted to the front passenger seat or for any other passenger to occupy the seat.
