Fig. 63 On the sun visor on the passenger side: airbag sticker
Not all countries allow you to transport children on the front passenger seat. Not every child seat is suitable for use on the front passenger seat. Volkswagen dealerships keep an up-to-date list of all authorised child seats. Only use child seats that have been authorised for your vehicle.
The active front airbag on the front passenger side presents a major danger to a child. Transporting a child in a rear-facing child seat on the front passenger seat can pose a danger to the child's life.
If a rear-facing child seat is secured to the front passenger seat, an inflating front passenger front airbag can strike it with such force that critical or fatal injuries may occur . Therefore, never use a rear-facing child seat on the front passenger seat when the front passenger front airbag is activated.
Only use a rear-facing child seat on the front passenger seat when you have ascertained
that the front passenger front airbag has been switched off. This is confirmed when
the yellow indicator lamp in the dash panel PASSENGER AIR BAG
lights up . If the front
passenger front airbag cannot be switched off and stays active, do not transport
any children on the front passenger seat .
Airbag sticker
There may be a sticker showing important information about the front passenger front airbag on the front passenger sun visor . Before installing a rear-facing child seat observe the warnings in the following chapters:
What to be aware of when using a child seat on the front passenger seat:

Universal child seats in groups 0, 0+, 1, 2, or 3, as specified in ECE-R 44, can be fitted to the front passenger seat.
Some child restraint systems have a support foot which rests on the vehicle floor. Child restraint systems with a support foot may be used on the front passenger seat.
