Front passenger air bag and
status light
WARNING
The front passenger air bag is designed to
automatically turn OFF under some condi-
tions. Read this section carefully to learn
how it operates. Proper use of the seat, seat
belt and child restraints is necessary for
most effective protection. Failure to
follow all instructions in this manual con-
cerning the use of seats, seat belts and child
restraints can increase the risk or severity of
injury in an accident.

is located above the ashtray. The

nates to indicate that the front pas-
senger air bag is OFF and will not in-
flate in a crash.
O

Front passenger air bag:
The front passenger air bag is designed to
automatically turn OFF when the vehicle is
operated under some conditions as de-
scribed below as permitted by U.S. regu-
lations. If the front passenger air bag is
OFF, it will not inflate in a crash. The
driver air bag and other air bags in your
vehicle are not part of this system.
The purpose of the regulation is to help
reduce the risk of injury or death from an
inflating air bag to certain front passenger
seat occupants, such as children, by re-
quiring the air bag to be automatically
turned OFF.
The occupant classification sensor (pat-
tern sensor) is in the front passenger seat
cushion and is designed to detect an oc-
cupant and objects on the seat. For ex-
ample, if a child is in the front passenger
seat, the advanced air bag system is de-
signed to turn the passenger air bag OFF
in accordance with the regulations. Also,
if a child restraint of the type specified in
the regulations is on the seat, the occu-
pant classification sensor can detect it
and cause the air bag to turn OFF.
