MANUAL DEACTIVATION OF PASSENGER’S FRONT
AIRBAG
Should it be absolutely necessary to carry a child on the front seat, the
passenger’s airbag on the car can be deactivated.
Deactivation/reactivation takes place with ignition key at STOP and
operating it in the special key switch set in dashboard box on driver’s
side.
The key can be inserted and removed in both positions.
IMPORTANT Operate the switch only when the engine is not running
and the ignition key is removed.
The key-operated switch has two positions:
❒ passenger’s front airbag activated (ON position P): warning light F
on instrument cluster off; it is absolutely prohibited to carry a child on
the front seat.
❒ passenger’s front airbag deactivated (OFF position F): warning light
F on instrument cluster on; it is possible to carry a child protected
by special restraint system on the front seat.
Warning light
F on the cluster stays on permanently until the
passenger’s airbag is reactivated.
Deactivation of the passenger’s front airbag does not inhibit operation of
the side airbag.
