– When using an infant or child restraint system,<br />
be sure to follow all manufacturer's<br />
instructions on installation and use.<br />

held on the lap, nor should they share a safety<br />
belt with another occupant while the vehicle is<br />

the age and size of the child.<br />
– Child restraint systems that are damaged or<br />
have been heavily stressed in an accident must<br />
be replaced immediately.<br />

must be placed in the rear.<br />
f Do not use a child restraint system in the front<br />
passenger seat.<br />

Using child restraint systems in the front<br />
passenger seat<br />
Danger!<br />
The use of a child restraint system in the<br />
front passenger seat can result in serious<br />
personal injury or death to the child from an<br />
air bag deployment.<br />
To reduce risk of injury from an inflating air<br />
bag in an accident, Porsche strongly<br />
recommends:<br />
f Under all normal circumstances, the child seat<br />
must be placed in the rear.<br />
Do not use a child restraint system in the front<br />
passenger seat.<br />
However, there may be serious situations where it<br />
might be necessary to place a child in the front<br />
seat so that he/she can be kept under direct<br />
observation to prevent an immediate risk to the<br />
child (for example, while driving to the doctor or<br />
hospital). The following instructions are provided<br />
to you solely for that purpose.<br />
f Seek appropriate advice from your authorized<br />
Porsche dealer about the possible installation<br />
of a Porsche child restraint system.<br />
f If a child restraint system must be fastened to<br />
the passenger's seat, adjust the passenger's<br />
seat as far away from the air bag as possible.<br />
