DANGER

As the deployment of the front passenger airbag is not compatible with the positioning of a rear-facing child seat, NEVER fit a rear-facing child restraint system on a seat protected by an ACTIVATED front AIRBAG. This can cause the CHILD’S DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY.

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

Activating the front passenger airbag

(depending on the vehicle)

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 theairbag: vehicle stationary, ignition switched off, press and turn the lock to1 position ON.

With the ignition switched on, you must check that the warning light 2_ALL_053_1_pictogramme.png is off and that the warning light comes on the display 2 after each start-up for around 60 seconds.

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.
