Airbags
>Important!
If the airbag indicator light comes on
during a journey, take the car to a quali
fied specialist workshop, e.g. a smart
center, without delay.
It is possible that the airbag and the belt
tensioner could be activated uninten
tionally or will not function in the event
of an accident.
Danger of injury!
For this reason, you should never
carry a child on the passenger seat in a
child restraint system that faces to the
rear if the passenger airbag has not
been deactivated, i.e. if the airbag in
dicator light is not lit.
Also observe the corresponding warn
ing sticker on the instrument panel.
If you have installed an original smart
baby carrier on the passenger seat and
the airbag indicator light does not
come on (restraint system not identi
fied), have the automatic restraint sys
tem recognition function checked
without delay by a qualified specialist
workshop, such as a smart center.
Until this problem has been rectified,
do not carry children in the car, as they
could sustain serious or even fatal in
juries in the event of an accident.
Danger of injury!
If the indicator light does not
come on when you switch on the ignition
or does not go out again after a few sec
onds once the engine is running or
comes on again, there is a fault.
Some systems could be triggered unin
tentionally or not be triggered at all in
the event of an accident with high de
celeration. In such cases, immediately
have the safety system of your vehicle
checked and repaired at a qualified
specialist workshop which has the nec
essary specialist knowledge and tools
to carry out the work required. smart
gmbh recommends that you visit a smart
center for this. In particular, work rel
evant to safety or on safetyrelated
systems must be carried out at a quali
fied specialist workshop.
