Deactivating the passenger
airbag
To ensure the safety of your child,
it is essential to deactivate the
passenger airbag when you install a "rear-facing" child seat on the
front passenger seat. Otherwise,
the child would risk being seriously
injured or killed if the airbag were
t o i n fl a t e .
With the ignition switched off ,
insert the key into the passenger
airbag deactivation switch 1 ,
turn it to the "OFF" position,
then remove the key keeping the
switch in this position.
In the "OFF" position, the passenger
airbag will not be deployed in the
event of an impact.
A s s o o n a s t h e c h i l d s e a t i s r e m o v e d ,
turn the airbag switch to the "ON"
position to re-activate the airbag
and thus ensure the safety of your
passenger in the event of an impact. If the passenger airbag is
deactivated, the warning
lamp in the instrument panel
remains on until the passenger
airbag is reactivated.
Flashing indicates a fault
with at least one of these
airbags.
