Before installing a child restraint
system in the front passenger
seat, make sure that the front,
knee and side airbags on the
front passenger side are deacti-
vated.

senger airbags automatically,
refer to page 175.
After installing a child restraint
system, move the front passen-
ger seat as far back as it will go

belt is located in front of the belt
guide of the child seat, move the
front passenger seat carefully
