  1. A
    Slide the front passenger seat as far forward as possible towards the dashboard
  2. Deactivate the front passenger frontal airbagCevap
  3. C
    Ensure that the front passenger airbag system is fully active and armed
  4. D
    Place a soft cushion underneath the child seat to raise its resting angle

Cevap

Deactivating the front passenger frontal airbag is legally required and essential before carrying a child in a rear-facing restraint on the front seat.
Under UK law and the Highway Code, you must never fit a rear-facing baby seat in a front passenger seat protected by an active frontal airbag. Deactivating the passenger airbag ensures that an explosive deployment cannot strike the back of the child seat in a crash.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the type and orientation of the child restraint being used.
The restraint is a rear-facing baby seat positioned on the front passenger seat.
Rear-facing child seats position the child's head and upper body directly adjacent to the airbag deployment zone.
2
Apply UK road traffic law and Highway Code rules regarding airbag deployment.
It is illegal to place a rear-facing baby seat in a front passenger seat protected by an active front airbag.
If the airbag deploys in a collision, it strikes the back of the child seat with severe force, causing fatal or life-threatening injuries.
3
Determine the necessary vehicle adjustment before beginning the journey.
The front passenger frontal airbag must be switched off or deactivated.
Deactivating the airbag prevents deployment, allowing the child seat to protect the occupant safely as designed.
