Seats and Restraints

If the On Indicator Is Lit for a
Child Restraint

If a child restraint has been installed
and the on indicator is lit:

1. Turn the vehicle off.

2. Remove the child restraint from

the vehicle.

3. Remove any additional items

from the seat such as blankets,
cushions, seat covers, seat
heaters, or seat massagers.

4. Reinstall the child restraint

following the directions provided
by the child restraint
manufacturer and refer to

Securing Child Restraints (Rear
Seat) on page 3

47

or

Securing

Child Restraints (Front
Passenger Seat) on page 3

49

.

5. If, after reinstalling the child

restraint and restarting the
vehicle, the on indicator is still lit,
turn the vehicle off. Then slightly
recline the vehicle seatback and
adjust the seat cushion,
if adjustable, to make sure that
the vehicle seatback is not
pushing the child restraint into
the seat cushion.

Also make sure the child
restraint is not trapped under the
vehicle head restraint. If this
happens, adjust the head
restraint. See

Head Restraints

on page 3

.

6. Restart the vehicle.

The passenger sensing system may
or may not turn off the airbag for a
child in a child restraint depending
upon the child's seating posture and
body build. It is better to secure the
child restraint in a rear seat.

If the Off Indicator Is Lit for an
Adult-Size Occupant

If a person of adult-size is sitting in
the front outboard passenger seat,
but the off indicator is lit, it could be
because that person is not sitting
properly in the seat. Use the
following steps to allow the system
to detect that person and enable the
front outboard passenger frontal
airbag :

1. Turn the vehicle off.
