Airbag system
Fig.28 On the roof console: passenger
airbag deactivation control lamp.
Deactivate the front passenger front airbag
only if you have to use a rear-facing child seat
in the front passenger seat.
CUPRA recommends tting the child seat in
the rear seat to avoid having to deactivate the
front passenger airbag.
When the front passenger airbag is deactiva-
ted, this means that only the front passenger
front airbag is deactivated. All the other airbags
in the vehicle remain activated.
Deactivate and activate the front passenger
front airbag
●
Switch the ignition o.
●
Open the passenger side door.
●
Remove the key shaft from the vehicle key.
●
Insert the key blade into the slot provided
in the front passenger airbag disconnection
switch ›››Fig.27. About 3/4 of the key should
enter; this is as far as it will go.
●
Turn the key gently to change its position to
(deactivate) or to (activate). If you have
diiculty, ensure that you have inserted the key
as far as it will go.
●
Close the front passenger door.
●
When deactivating the airbag, switch the ig-
nition on and check that the control lamp
remains lit ›››Fig.28.
●
When reactivating the airbag, check that
when the ignition is switched on, the
control lamp does not light up and the 
lamp lights up for 60 seconds and then turns
o.
WARNING
●
The driver of the vehicle is responsible for
disabling or switching on the airbag.
●
Always switch o the ignition before disa-
bling the front passenger airbag! Failure to do
so could result in a fault in the airbag deacti-
vation system.
●
Never leave the key in the airbag disabling
switch as it could get damaged or enable or
disable the airbag during driving.
●
If for any reason an airbag is deactivated,
reactivate it as soon as possible so that it can
full its protective function.
