How to install your RECARO seat
Risk of injury during installation
RECARO seats may only be installed
by professionally trained personnel.
Authorisation to handle pyrotechnic
restraint systems in a workshop and
storage area in accordance with the
laws governing explosives is required
for conversion work on belt tensioners
and installation work on side airbags
and their control lines.
Improper installation seriously impairs
the protective function of the RECARO
seat.
Therefore, always proceed according to
the installation instructions included
with the console. Please consult your
dealer if you have any questions.
Risk of fire
An electrical connection performed
improperly can lead to short-circuits!
This can cause fires in your vehicle
and thus considerable risk to your
safety, health and, in the worst case,
your life itself.
Please note:
It takes care, patience and precision to
install a seat. Before commencing instal-
lation, ensure that you have parked the
vehicle safely and that you maintain a sure
footing at all times when carrying out the
work.

Risk of injury by passenger
front airbag
The front airbags are always active
after a RECARO
installed. Deactivation in case of an
unoccupied seat or an installed child
seat is not applicable. For this reason,
child seats may never be mounted
onto the passenger seat in such
cases.
Child-seat qualification
The safety systems for usage of child
seats on the standard passenger seat
depend on the vehicle type. Approval
for use with a child seat is voided
when a RECARO seat is installed as
the passenger seat. Permission to use
a child seat on the passenger seat
must be re-evaluated using the vehicle
documentation and the instructions
for the child seat. Information on
negating any existing information in
the vehicle can be found in the
vehicle-specific
