If the indicator comes on or

If you see any of these indications,
the airbags and the seat belt
tensioners may not work properly
when you need them.
This indicator alerts you
that the passengers side
airbag has been automatically shut
off. It does mean there is a
problem with your side airbags.
To reduce the risk of injury from an
inflating side airbag, your vehicle has
an automatic cutoff system for the
passenger’s side airbag.
Although Acura does not encourage
children to ride in front, this system
is designed to shut off the side
airbag if a child leans sideways and
the child’s head is in the side airbag
deployment path.
A front seat passenger should not
use a cushion or other object as a
backrest. It may prevent the cutoff
system from working properly.
When you turn the ignition to ON
(II), the indicator should come on
briefly and go out. If it doesn’t come
on, stays on, or comes on while
driving without a passenger in the
front seat, have the system checked.

Ignoring the SRS indicator can
result in serious injury or death

Have your vehicle checked by a
dealer as soon as possible if
the SRS indicator alerts you to
a possible problem.
