With the ignition on, you must check that the 1 ¹ warning light is lit on the dashboard and, depending on the vehicle, that the message “PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF” is displayed.

This light remains permanently lit to let you know that you can fit a child seat.

The front passenger airbag must also be deactivated when a forward facing child seat is installed in the front passenger seat.

The passenger airbag must only be deactivated or activated when the vehicle is stationary.

If it is interfered with when the vehicle is being driven, indicator lights å and © will come on.

Switch the ignition off then on again to reset the airbag in accordance with the lock position.

The markings on the dashboard and labels A on each side of the passenger sun visor 3 (for example, the labels shown above) will remind you of these instructions.
