Seats, restraints39Use the ignition key to choose theposition:OFF *:front passenger airbag is
deactivated and will not
inflate in the event of a
collision, control indicator
OFF * illuminates
continuously in the centre
console.ON Ó:front passenger airbag is
active.9 Danger
Deactivate passenger airbag only
in combination with the use of a
child restraint system, subject to
the instructions and restrictions in
the table 3 43.
Otherwise, there is a risk of fatal
injury for a person occupying a
seat with a deactivated front
passenger airbag.
If the control indicator Ó illuminates
for approx. 60 seconds after the
ignition is switched on, the front
passenger airbag system will inflate
in the event of a collision.
If the control indicator * illuminates
after the ignition is switched on, the front passenger airbag system is
deactivated. It stays on while the
airbag is deactivated.
If both control indicators are
illuminated at the same time, there is
a system failure. The status of the
system is not discernible, therefore
no person is allowed to occupy the
front passenger seat. Contact a
workshop immediately.
Consult a workshop immediately if
neither of the two control indicators
are illuminated.
Change status only when the vehicle is stopped with the ignition off.
Status remains until the next change.

40Seats, restraintsChild restraintsChild restraint systems9 Danger
If using a rear-facing child restraint
system on the front passenger
seat, the airbag system for the
front passenger seat must be
deactivated. This also applies to certain forward-facing child
restraint systems as indicated in
the tables 3 43.
Airbag deactivation 3 38.
Airbag label 3 33.
We recommend a child restraint system which is tailored specifically to the vehicle. For further information,
contact your workshop.
Before fastening a child seat adjust
the head restraint 3 26.
When a child restraint system is being
used, pay attention to the following
usage and installation instructions and also those supplied with the child restraint system.
Always comply with local or national
regulations. In some countries, the
use of child restraint systems is
forbidden on certain seats.
Child restraint systems can be
fastened with:
● Three-point seat belt
● ISOFIX brackets
● Top-tether
Three-point seat belt
Child restraint systems can be
fastened by using a three-point seat
belt. After fastening the child restraint system the seat belt has to be
tightened 3 43.ISOFIX brackets
Fasten vehicle-approved ISOFIX
child restraint systems to the ISOFIX
brackets. Specific vehicle ISOFIX
child restraint system positions are
marked in the ISOFIX table 3 43.
ISOFIX brackets are indicated by a
label on the backrest. To get access
to the ISOFIX brackets, first pull the
zipper.
An i-Size child restraint system is an
universal ISOFIX child restraint
system according UN Regulation No.
129.
Page 43 of 227
Seats, restraints41All i-Size child restraint systems can
be used on any vehicle seat suitable
for i-Size, i-Size table 3 43.
Either a Top-tether strap or a support
leg must be used in addition to the
ISOFIX brackets.
i-Size child seats and vehicle seats
with i-Size approval are marked with i-Size symbol, see illustration.
Top-tether anchors
Top-tether anchors are marked with
the symbol t for a child seat.In addition to the ISOFIX brackets,
fasten the Top-tether strap to the
Top-tether anchors.
ISOFIX child restraint systems of
universal category positions are
marked in the table by IUF 3 43.
Selecting the right system
The rear seats are the most
convenient location to fasten a child
restraint system.
Children should travel facing
rearwards in the vehicle as long as
possible. This makes sure that the
child's backbone, which is still very
weak, is under less strain in the event of an accident.
Suitable are child restraint systems
that comply with valid UN ECE
regulations. Check local laws and
regulations for mandatory use of child restraint systems.
The following child restraints are
recommended for the following
weight classes:
● Group 0, Group 0+ :
Maxi Cosi Cabriofix with or
without ISOFIX base for children
up to 13 kg
● Group I : Duo Plus with ISOFIX
and Top-tether for children from 9 kg to 18 kg
● Group II, Group III : Kidfix XP with
or without ISOFIX for children
from 15 kg to 36 kg
Ensure that the child restraint system
to be installed is compatible with the
vehicle type.
Ensure that the mounting location of
the child restraint system within the
vehicle is correct, see following
tables.
Page 44 of 227
42Seats, restraintsAllow children to enter and exit the
vehicle only on the side facing away
from the traffic.
When the child restraint system is not in use, secure the seat with a seat beltor remove it from the vehicle.
Notice
Do not affix anything on the child restraint systems and do not cover
them with any other materials.
A child restraint system which has
been subjected to stress in an
accident must be replaced.
