Do not use child restraint systems which
have been damaged or exposed to an acci-
dent.
If attachment systems have been damaged
or strained by an accident, have them
checked and replaced by an authorized
service center or another qualified service
center or repair shop.
Warning
The stability of the child restraint system
is limited or compromised with incorrect
seat setting or improper installation of the
child seat. There is a risk of injury or
danger to life. Make sure that the child
restraint system fits securely against the
backrest. If possible, adjust the backrest
tilt for all affected backrests and correctly
adjust the seats. Make sure that seats
and backrests are securely engaged or
locked. If possible and necessary, adjust
the height of the head restraints or remove
them.
On the rear seats
In order to facilitate the installation of a
back-facing child restraint system:
Move the front seat as far up as possible
before folding down the backrest.
On the front passenger seat
Deactivating the airbags
Warning
Active front passenger airbags can injure
a child in a child restraint system when
the airbags are deployed. There is a risk
of injury. Make sure that the front passen-
ger airbags are deactivated and that the
PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF indicator light
illuminates.
Before installing a child restraint system in
the front passenger seat, make sure that the
front, knee and side airbags on the passeng-
er's side are deactivated.
Deactivate the front passenger airbags au-
tomatically, refer to page 153.
Seat position and height
After installing a child restraint system,
move the front passenger seat as far back as
possible and adjust its height to the highest
and thus best possible position for the belt
and to offer optimal protection in the event
of an accident.
If the upper attachment point of the seat
belt is located in front of the belt guide of
the child restraint seat, move the front pas-
senger seat carefully forward until the best
possible belt guide position is reached.
Child seat security
The rear seat belts and the front passenger
seat belt can be permanently locked to fas-
ten child restraint systems.
