(**) Passenger Occupant
Classification System: the passenger
front and side air bags and the seat belt
pretensioner are designed to deploy
when the passenger occupant
classification sensor detects a
passenger sitting on the passenger's
seat.
Note: In a frontal offset collision, the
equipped air bags and pretensioners
may all deploy depending on the
direction, angle, and rate of impact.
Warning!
Unapproved modifications or service
procedures to the passenger seat
assembly, its related components, seat
cover, or cushion may inadvertently change
the air bag deployment in case of a frontal
collision. This could result in death or
serious injury to the front passenger if the
vehicle is involved in a collision. A modified
vehicle may not comply with required
Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards
(FMVSS) and/or Canadian Motor Vehicle
Safety Standards (CMVSS).
If it is necessary to modify the air bag
system for persons with disabilities, contact
your authorized dealer.
Warning!
Deployed air bags and seat belt
pretensioners cannot protect you in
another collision. Have the air bags, seat
belt pretensioners, and the seat belt
retractor assemblies replaced by an
authorized dealer immediately. Also, have
the Occupant Restraint Controller System
serviced as well.
Warning!
Ignoring the Air Bag Warning Light in
your instrument panel could mean you
won’t have the air bags to protect you in a
collision. If the light does not come on as a
bulb check when the ignition is first turned
on, stays on after you start the vehicle, or if
it comes on as you drive, have an
authorized dealer service the air bag
system immediately.
Placing an object on the floor under the
front passenger seat may prevent the
occupant classification sensor from
working properly, which may result in
serious injury or death in a collision. Do not
place any objects on the floor under the
front passenger seat.
If there is a fault present in the occupant
classification sensor, both the Indicator
Light and the Air Bag Warning Light will
illuminate to show that the Passenger
Advanced Front Air Bag is deactivated.
Should this occur, the Passenger
Advanced Front Air Bag will remain
deactivated until the fault is cleared. This
indicates that you should take the vehicle
to an authorized dealer for service
immediately.
