SAFETY
SERIOUS DANGER: never
place cradle child seats
facing backwards on the
front passenger’s seat of
cars fitted with passenger’s
air bag. Deployment of
the air bag in an accident could
cause fatal injuries to the child.
Always deactivate the passenger air
bag when placing a child seat on
the front seat. Move the passenger’s
seat as far back as possible to avoid
contact between the child seat and
the dashboard. Although this is not
mandatory by law, the air bag should
be immediately reactivated when
children are no longer carried to
ensure better protection to adults.
