To ensure that the seat belt is positioned properly when using a child seat on the front passenger's seat, move the backrest as far forward as possible and adjust it to fit the child seat. In addition, move the seat to the highest position.
When using a rearward-facing child seat on the front passenger's seat, the front passenger's airbag must be deactivated*.
