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

The passenger sensing system may
or may not turn off the airbag for a
child in a child restraint depending
upon the child

s size. It is better to

secure the child restraint in a rear
seat. Never put a rear-facing child
restraint in the front seat, even if the
on indicator is not lit.

If the Off Indicator Is Lit for an
Adult-Sized 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.

2. Remove any additional material

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

3. Place the seatback in the fully

upright position.

4. Have the person sit upright in

the seat, centered on the seat
cushion, with legs comfortably
extended.

5. Restart the vehicle and have

the person remain in this
position for two to
three minutes after the on
indicator is lit.
