Passenger Air Bag Deactivated
NOTE:
The system requires about 10 seconds to
alternate between turning the passenger
front and side Air Bags and seat belt
pretensioner system on or off.
The passenger air bag deactivation indi-
cator light may turn on repeatedly if
lu
ggage or other items are put on the
passenger seat, or if the temperature of
the vehicle's interior changes suddenly.
The passenger air bag deactivation indi-
cator light may turn on for 10 seconds if
th
e electrostatic capacity on the passenger
seat changes.
The air bag/seat belt pretensioner system
warning light might turn on if the
passenger seat receives a severe impact.
If the passenger Air Bag deactivation indi-
cator light does not turn on after installing
a
child restraint system on the passenger
seat, first, reinstall your child restraint
system according to the procedure in this
Owner’s Manual. Then, if the passenger
Air Bag deactivation OFF indicator light
still does not turn on, contact an autho
-
rized dealer as soon as possible.
If the passenger Air Bag deactivation indi-
cator light turns on when an occupant is
se
ated directly in the passenger seat, have
the passenger readjust their posture by
sitting with their feet on the floor, and
then refastening the seat belt. If the
passenger Air Bag deactivation indicator
light remains turned on, slide the
passenger seat as far back as possible.
Contact an authorized dealer as soon as
possible.
WARNING!
Do not carry or hold any objects (e.g.,
backpacks, boxes, etc.) while seated in the
front passenger seat. Holding an object
may provide an output signal to the
occupant classification sensor that is
different than the occupant’s properly
seated weight input, which may result in
serious injury or death in a collision.
WARNING!
Never place a rear-facing child restraint
in front of an air bag. A deploying
passenger front air bag can cause death
or serious injury to a child 12 years or
younger, including a child in a
rear-facing child restraint.
Never install a rear-facing child restraint
in the front seat of a vehicle. Only use a
rear-facing child restraint in the rear
seat. If the vehicle does not have a rear
seat, do not transport a rear-facing child
restraint in that vehicle.
Children 12 years or younger should
always ride buckled up in a vehicle with
a rear seat.
