Child restraint system on the front-
passenger seat
General notes
Accident statistics show that children
secured in the rear seats are safer than
children secured in the front-passenger
seat. For
this reason, smart strongly advi-
ses that you install a child restraint sys-
tem on a rear seat.
If you secure a child in a child restraint
system on the front-passenger seat, always
observe the information on "Disabling the
front-passenger front airbag" (Y page 51).
You can thus avoid the risks that could
arise as a result of:
R
the enabling or disabling of the front-
passenger front airbag by mistake
R
the unsuitable positioning of the child
restraint system, e.g. too close to the
dashboard
