DO NOT use on a front passenger seat where there is an active airbag.
Although this isn't technically illegal, many car manufacturers and some car seat manufacturers insist that you do not use any forward facing seat in the front passenger seat where there is an active airbag.
If you try to push the front passenger seat back as far as possible, as some might recommend, there is a danger that it might compromise the effectiveness of the front passenger seat belt and reduce the survival space for any child in the seat behind.(Source Transport Research Laboratory). Always read and follow the car and seat manufacturer's instructions.
