If your vehicle has the passenger sensing system and you're using a rear-facing child restraint in this seat, check to be sure the right front passenger's frontal air bag is off before you begin to drive. If the air bag has been turned off the off indicator will light and stay lit when the key is turned to RUN or START.

If this ever happens, turn the vehicle off, unbuckle the safety belt and perform the steps to install the rear-facing restraint again. After restarting the vehicle, if the air bag still doesn't turn off, install the infant restraint in a rear seat position of the vehicle and have your vehicle serviced as soon as possible. 6.
