The passenger sensing system is designed to turn off
the right front passenger’s frontal airbag and
seat-mounted side impact airbag if:

the right front passenger seat is unoccupied

the system determines that an infant is present in a
rear-facing infant seat

the system determines that a small child is present
in a forward-facing child restraint

the system determines that a small child is present
in a booster seat

a right front passenger takes his/her weight off of
the seat for a period of time

the right front passenger seat is occupied by a
smaller person, such as a child who has outgrown
child restraints

or if there is a critical problem with the airbag
system or the passenger sensing system.

When the passenger sensing system has turned off the
right front passenger’s frontal airbag and seat-mounted
side impact airbag, the off indicator will light and
stay lit to remind you that the airbags are off.

If a child restraint has been installed and the on
indicator is lit, turn the vehicle off. Remove the child
restraint from the vehicle and reinstall the child restraint
following the child restraint manufacturer’s directions
and refer to

Securing a Child Restraint in the Right Front

Seat Position on page 1-49

.

If after reinstalling the child restraint and restarting the
vehicle, the on indicator is still lit, check to make
sure that the vehicle’s seatback is not pressing the child
restraint into the seat cushion. If this happens, slightly
recline the vehicle’s seatback and adjust the seat
cushion if possible. Also make sure the child restraint is
not trapped under the vehicle head restraint. If this
happens, adjust the head restraint.

If the on indicator is still lit, secure the child in the child
restraint in a rear seat position in the vehicle and
check with your dealer.

The passenger sensing system is designed to enable
(may inflate) the right front passenger’s frontal airbag
and seat-mounted side impact airbag anytime the
system senses that a person of adult size is sitting
properly in the right front passenger’s seat. When the
passenger sensing system has allowed the airbags to
be enabled, the on indicator will light and stay lit to
remind you that the airbags are active.
