Child seats - location
Always fit child seats/booster cushions (p. 43)
in the rear seat if the passenger airbag is acti-
vated (p. 33). If a child is sitting on the front
passenger seat then he/she could suffer seri-
ous injury if the airbag deploys.
The label for the airbag becomes visible when
the passenger door is opened, see illustration (p.
33).
You may place:
•
a child seat/booster cushion on the front
passenger seat provided there is no acti-
vated airbag on the front passenger side.
•
one or more child seats/booster cushions
in the rear seat.
WARNING
Never place a child in a child seat or on a
booster cushion in the front seat if the air-
bag (SRS) is activated.
No one shorter than 140 cm should ever
sit in the front passenger seat if the airbag
(SRS) is activated.
Failure to follow the advice given above
can endanger life.
WARNING
Booster cushions/child seats with steel
braces or some other design that could
rest on the seatbelt buckle's opening but-
ton must not be used, as they could cause
the seatbelt buckle to open accidentally.
Do not allow the upper section of the child
seat to rest against the windscreen.

children who weigh between 15 and 36 kg
and who are at least 95 cm in height.
Correct position, the seatbelt should be posi-
tioned in on the shoulder.
