When an adult is seated in the front
passenger seat, if the “PASSENGER AIR
BAG OFF” indicator is on, turn the ignition
switch to the LOCK position and ask the
passenger to sit properly (sitting upright
with the seat back in an upright position,
centered on the seat cushion with their
seat belt on, legs comfortably extended
and their feet on the floor). Restart the
engine and have the person remain in
that position for about 30 seconds. This
will allow the system to detect the person
and to enable the passenger air bag.
If the "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF" indi-
cator is still on, ask the passenger to
move to the rear seat.
!
WARNING:
Do not allow an adult passenger to ride
in the front seat when the “PASSENGER
AIR BAG OFF” indicator is illuminated
because the air bag will not deploy in the
event of a crash. If the "PASSENGER
AIR BAG OFF" indicator remains illumi-
nated after the adult passenger reposi-
tions themselves properly and the car is
restarted, it is recommended that pas-
senger move to the rear seat because
the passenger's front air bag will not
deploy.
Front seat passengers must stay prop-
erly seated to avoid serious injury from
a deploying air bag.
NOTE:
The "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF" indi-
cator illuminates for about 4 seconds
after the ignition switch is turned to the
ON position or after the engine is started.
If the front passenger seat is occupied,
the occupant classification sensor will
then classify the front passenger after
several more seconds.
Proper position
!
WARNING:
Do not put a heavy load or an active
electronic device (ex. laptop computer,
navigation etc..) in the front passenger
seatback pocket or on the front passen-
ger seat. Do not hang onto the front
passenger seat. Do not hang any items
such as seatback table on the front pas-
senger seatback. Do not place feet on
the front passenger seatback. Do not
place any items under the front passen-
ger seat. Any of these could interfere
with proper sensor operation.
