Switching the Passenger Airbag Back
On
WARNING: The seatbelts for the
driver and right front passenger seating
positions are specifically designed to
operate together with the airbags in certain
types of crashes. When you switch off your
airbag, you not only lose the protection of
the airbag, you also may reduce the
effectiveness of your seatbelt system. If
the passenger does not meet the
requirements stated in the National
Highway Traffic Safety Administration or
Transport Canada deactivation criteria,
switching off the airbag can increase the
risk of serious injury or death in a crash.
WARNING: If your vehicle has rear
seats, always transport children who are
12 and younger in the rear seat. Always use
seatbelts and child restraints properly. Do
not place a child in a rear facing infant seat
in the front seat unless your vehicle is
equipped with an airbag on and off switch
and the passenger airbag is turned off. This
is because the back of the infant seat is
too close to the inflating airbag and the
risk of a fatal injury to the infant when the
airbag inflates is substantial.
WARNING: If the passenger airbag
off light is illuminated when the passenger
airbag switch is on and the ignition is on,
have the passenger airbag switch serviced
immediately by a qualified technician.
The passenger airbag remains off until you
switch it back on.
