MANUAL DEACTIVATION OF
PASSENGER’S FRONT AIR BAG
AND SIDE BAG (where provided)
Should it be absolutely necessary to car-
ry a child on the front seat, the passenger’s
front air bag and the Side Bag (where pro-
vided) can be deactivated.
The instrument panel warning light F
will stay on glowing steadily until reacti-
vating the passenger’s front air bag and the
Side Bag (where provided).
SEVERE DANGER: Do not
arranged cradle child re-
straints facing backwards if
the passenger’s airbag is on.
Deployment of the airbag in
an accident could cause fa-
tal injuries to the baby. Always deac-
tivate the passenger’s airbag when
placing a child seat on the front seat.
Move the passenger’s seat as far back
as possible to avoid contact between
the cradle and the dashboard. Al-
though this is not mandatory by law,
the airbag should be immediately re-
activated when children are no longer
carried to ensure better protection to
adults.
WARNING
To deactivate the passen-
ger’s front air bag and the
Side Bag (where provided), refer to
paragraphs “Digital display” and
“Multifunctional display” in section
“Dashboard and controls”.
