indicator lamp while driving to make sure
that the42 indicator lamp is
illuminated. If the42 indicator
lamp goes out or remains out, you may only
carry a child on the front-passenger seat
once the system has been repaired.
Never place anything between the seat
cushion and the child restraint system (e.g. a
cushion), as this reduces the effectiveness of
the BabySmart™ air bag deactivation system.
The underside of the child restraint system
must lie against the seat cushion of the front-
passenger seat. In the event of an accident,
an incorrectly installed child restraint system
could injure the child instead of offering
protection.
A child in a rear-facing child restraint on the
front-passenger seat will be seriously
injured or even killed if the front-passenger
front air bag inflates.
Observe the manufacturer's instructions
when installing special child restraint
systems.
RIf you have to place a child in a forward-
facing child restraint system on the front-
passenger seat, you must:
-
-
move the seat as far back as possible
use the proper child restraint
recommended for the age, size and
weight of the child
-
secure child restraint with the vehicle's
seat belt according to the child seat
manufacturer's instructions
