for a person occupying a seat with a

Child Restraint Systems
Danger
Use the ignition key to choose the
position:
Make sure that children below sufficient
size and weight are protected using a
suitable child restraint system. Never
place a child on the lap.
OFF
front passenger airbag is
deactivated and will not inflate
in the event of a collision.
Control indicator illuminates
continuously in the centre
console
If the control indicator ON illuminates for
approx. 60 seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the front passenger airbag
system will inflate in the event of a
collision.
If the control indicator OFF illuminates
after the ignition is switched on,
the front passenger airbag system is
deactivated. It stays on while the airbag
is deactivated.
If both control indicators are illuminated
at the same time, there is a system
failure. The status of the system is
not discernible, therefore no person is
allowed to occupy the front passenger
seat. Contact a workshop immediately.
Danger
If using a rear-facing child restraint
system on the front passenger seat, the
airbag system for the front passenger
seat must be deactivated. This also
applies to certain forward-facing child
restraint systems as indicated in the
Child Restraints table.

Danger
Deactivate the passenger airbag only
in combination with the use of a
child restraint system, subject to the
instructions and restrictions in the Child
Restraints table.
