Danger!

Risk of serious personal injury or death

due to the passenger’s airbag triggering

unintentionally. When the ignition is on and

the up to one-year old child is seated in the

child restraint system on the passenger’s

seat the indicator lamp „PASSENGER AIRBAG

OFF“ must be on. If the “PASSENGER AIRBAG

OFF” indicator lamp does not light up, it could

indicate a fault in the system. In this case:

On vehicles with key-operated airbag deactiva-

tion device: Switch to position OFF.
On vehicles without key-operated airbag

deactivation device: Do not use a child

restraint system in the front passenger’s seat.
Have the fault remedied at your nearest

authorized Porsche dealer.

Child restraint system for children older than
one year

Your vehicle is equipped with a weight sensing

system for the passenger’s seat in accordance

with U.S. Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard

208. Depending on the weight acting on the

passenger’s seat, the passenger’s airbag will

automatically be switched on or off.

Small adult passengers

Make sure that the PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF

indicator lamp does not light up.

Danger!

Risk of serious personal injury or death due

to the passenger’s airbag not triggering.

When the ignition is on and the small adult

passenger is seated on the passenger’s seat,

the indicator lamp “PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF”

must be off. If the “PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF”

indicator lamp lights up, it could indicate a

fault in the system. In this case:

Carry the passenger on the rear seat.
Have the fault remedied at the nearest

authorized Porsche dealer.

Automatic locking retractor

The safety belts for the front passenger and rear

seats are equipped with an automatic locking

retractor for securing the child restraint system.

When activated, this retractor allows you to

securely fasten the child restraint system in place

so that inadvertent movements will not occur.

Danger!

The use of a child restraint system on the front

passenger seat can result in serious personal

injury or death to the child from an airbag

deployment. To reduce risk of injury from

an inating airbag in an accident, Porsche

strongly recommends:

Under all normal circumstances, forward

facing child seats must be placed in the rear.

Before transporting a child on the passenger’s
