  3. C
    Ensure that the airbag warning light illuminates continuously on the dashboard while driving

Cevap

Deactivate the front passenger frontal airbag
Under UK law and Highway Code rules, it is illegal and dangerous to install a rear-facing baby seat on a front passenger seat protected by an active frontal airbag. In a collision, the airbag inflates with enormous force against the back of the child seat, which can cause fatal injuries. The frontal airbag must be deactivated before the journey.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the seating position and orientation of the child restraint
A rear-facing infant seat is being positioned in the front passenger seat equipped with a frontal airbag.
Airbag deployment force can violently strike the back of a rear-facing seat, causing catastrophic head and neck trauma to an infant.
2
Apply the statutory UK road safety regulation regarding front passenger airbags
The passenger airbag must be deactivated manually or via the vehicle key switch before installing the seat.
UK law strictly prohibits carrying an infant in a rear-facing seat where an active front airbag is present.
