Passenger airbag ON/OFF switch (if equipped)

WARNING: An airbag
ON/OFF switch may be

installed in this vehicle. Before
driving, always look at the face of
the switch to be sure the switch is
in the proper position in
accordance with these instructions
and warnings. Failure to put the
switch in a proper position can
increase the risk of serious injury
or death in a collision.

Turning the passenger airbag off

1. Insert the ignition key, turn the
switch to OFF position and hold in
the OFF position while removing the
key.

2. When the ignition is turned to the
on position the “pass airbag off”
light illuminates briefly, momentarily
shuts off and then turns back on.
This indicates that the passenger
airbag is deactivated.

WARNING: If the light fails to illuminate when the passenger air
bag switch is in the OFF position and the ignition switch is in

on, have the passenger air bag switch serviced at your authorized
dealer immediately.

WARNING: In order to avoid inadvertent activation of the
switch, always remove the ignition key from the passenger air

bag ON/OFF switch.

WARNING: An infant in a rear-facing seat faces a high risk of
serious or fatal injuries from a deploying passenger airbag. Rear

facing infant seats should NEVER be placed in the front seats, unless
the passenger airbag is turned off.
