In conjunction with the seat belts, the front

passenger additional protection for the head

event of an accident, the front airbags can
deploy fully when triggered, providing maximum protection.

manufacturer's installation instructions.
Mounted child seats must rest correctly on
the vehicle's seat and must not move or rock
more than 2.5 cm (1 inch).
Child seats equipped for a Top Tether strap
must also be secured using the Top Tether retaining strap in the vehicle ››› page 23. Only
secure the retaining belt to the rings fitted for
this purpose and identified as Top Tether.
Not all rings can be used with the Top Tether
system. Always tighten the Top Tether retaining strap so that the child seat fits snugly
against the corresponding seat in the vehicle.
