• when passenger airbag deployment is
enabled, the “PASSENGER AIRBAG
OFF” warning light,
A, will NOT be
illuminated.
WARNINGWARNING
Adults should not travel in the front
passenger seat if the “PASSENGER
AIRBAG OFF” warning light is
illuminated.
WARNINGWARNING
Children in a rearward-facing child seat
must not travel in the front passenger
seat if the “PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF”
warning light is not illuminated.
• Install child seats always when the ignition
key is in position
0 (electrical system off).
WARNINGWARNING
Installing a child seat with the
ignition key in position II can result
in induced injuries.
• The extra weight applied on the seat
during child seat installation might delay
correct occupant classifi cation if the
child seat is mounted with the ignition
key in position II
.
After turning the key to ON, the Occupant
Classifi cation System will continuously
attempt to classify every object or person
on the front passenger seat in one of two
categories: “Child” (for which passenger
airbag deployment is dangerous and must
be disabled) or “Adult” (for which
passenger airbag deployment is benefi cial
and must be provided). Occupants or
objects lighter than a typical one-year old
child sitting on a child seat (including an
empty seat) will be classifi ed as “child”.
Occupants or objects heavier than a
typical one-year old child will be classifi ed
as “adult”.
If the Occupant Classifi cation System
identifi es the front passenger as a child,
passenger airbag deployment will be
disabled and the “PASSENGER AIRBAG
OFF” warning light, A, on the roof panel
will be illuminated.
If the Occupant Classifi cation System
identifi es the front passenger as an
“adult”, passenger airbag deployment will
be enabled and the “PASSENGER
AIRBAG OFF
” warning light, A, will not
be illuminated.
The system does not disable the front
passenger seat belt pretensioner (also
known as emergency tensioning
device).
The system does not disable the front
passenger side bag.
When the key is turned to ON, the system
will require a few seconds to classify the
passenger on the front seat. As long as the
system is in the process of classifying the
occupant, the default setting will be child,
to avoid the risk of injuring a child during
this time.
If the Occupant Classifi cation System
identifi es a change in the classifi cation of
the front passenger after the vehicle is
started (for example, if the driver stops
without turning off the engine to allow a
front passenger to get in or get out), the
system will update the passenger airbag
status and the “PASSENGER AIRBAG
OFF” warning light status accordingly.
