To adjust the front passenger's seat to the child seat and to achieve the best possible seat belt positioning, move
- the front passenger's backrest as far forward as possible and
- the front passenger's seat as far upwards as possible.
If you use a child seat on the electrically adjustable rear seat*
- move the seat all the way back,
- adjust the seat height to the lowest position, and
- set the top section of the backrest to the most upright position.
WARNING!
- Note the important safety notes WARNING!, WARNING! and the instructions provided by the child seat manufacturer.
- Never install a rearward-facing child seat on the front passenger's seat unless the front passenger's airbag has been deactivated – this can result in potentially fatal injuries to the child.
