Seats and Restraints
3-33
For some children, including
children in child restraints, and for
very small adults, the passenger
sensing system may or may not turn
off the front outboard passenger
frontal airbag, depending upon the
person's seating posture and body
build. Everyone in the vehicle who
has outgrown child restraints should
wear a safety belt
properly
—
whether or not there is
an airbag for that person.
{
Warning
If the airbag readiness light ever
comes on and stays on, it means
that something may be wrong
with the airbag system. To help
avoid injury to yourself or others,
have the vehicle serviced right
away. See
for more
information, including important
safety information.
If the On Indicator Is Lit for a
Child Restraint
The passenger sensing system is
designed to turn off the front
outboard passenger frontal airbag if
the system determines that an infant
is present in 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
(Center Front Seat) on
page 3-58
or
Restraints (Front Outboard
Passenger Seat) on page 3-58
or
. Even
if the child restraint is equipped
with a safety belt lock-off, make
sure the safety belt retractor is
locked by pulling the shoulder
belt all the way out of the
retractor before tightening the
safety belt. When the retractor
lock is set, the belt can be
tightened but not pulled out of
the retractor.
