Warning
Active front-seat passenger airbags can injure a
child in a child restraint system when the air‐
bags are activated. There is a risk of injury.
Make sure that the front-seat passenger air‐
bags are deactivated and that the PASSEN‐
GER AIRBAG OFF indicator light lights up.
The rear safety belts and the front passenger
safety belt can be permanently locked to fasten
child restraint systems.
Before installing a child restraint system in the
front passenger seat, make sure that the front,
knee and side airbags on the front passenger
side are deactivated.

tight against the child restraint system. The
safety belt is locked.
Seat position and height
Before installing a child restraint system, move
the front passenger seat as far back as possible
and bring it as far up as possible to obtain the
best possible position for the belt and to offer
optimal protection in the event of an accident.

1. Unbuckle the safety belt buckle.
2. Remove the child restraint system.
If the upper anchorage of the safety belt is lo‐
cated in front of the belt guide of the child seat,

until the best possible belt guide position is
reached.

pletely.
