airbag is reactivated.
To guarantee the safety of your
child, it is imperative that the pas-

you install a "rearwards-facing" child
seat on the front passenger seat.
Otherwise, the child would risk be-
ing seriously injured or killed if the
airbag were triggered. Reactivation
When you remove the child seat,
turn switch

reactivate the airbag and so guaran-
tee the safety of your front passen-
ger in the event of an impact.
