Safety and Security

Occupant safety

Warning!

The BabySmart

air bag deactivation sys-

tem will ONLY work with a special child seat
designed to operate with it. It will not work
with child seats which are not BabySmart

compatible.

Never place anything between seat cushion
and child seat (e.g. pillow), since it reduces
the effectiveness of the deactivation sys-
tem. The bottom of the child seat must
make full contact with the passenger seat
cushion. An incorrectly mounted child seat
could cause injuries to the child in case of an
accident, instead of protecting the child.

Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for
installation of special child seats.

Warning!

When using a BabySmart

compatible

child seat on the front passenger seat, the
passenger front air bag will not deploy only
if the

indicator lamp remains il-

luminated.

Make sure to check the

indica-

tor lamp every time you use the special sys-
tem child seat. Should the

indicator lamp go out while the restraint is
installed, please check installation. If the

indicator lamp remains out, do

not use the BabySmart

restraint to trans-

port children on the front passenger seat un-
til the system has been repaired.

Warning!

Do not place powered-on laptops, cell
phones and like electronic devices on the
front passenger seat. Signals from such de-
vices may interfere with the BabySmart

system. Such signal interference may cause
the

indicator lamp not to come

on during self-test or be continuously lit, in-
dicating that the system is not functioning.
