1
The system detects  a person who is  generally adult size as an  adult, thus allowing the  pas-
senger airbag to deploy.When a smaller adult sits in the front passenger seat, the system may
detect their body shape as that  of a child, thus preventing airbag deployment.
If   the    "PASSENGER    AIRBAG
OFF" indicator  illuminates, neither
the  front   passenger  front  airbag
nor front passenger side airbag will
deploy  in  either  a side  or  frontal
collision.
*
2
When a larger child who has outgrown a child restraint system sits in the front passenger seat,
the system may  recognize him/her as  an adult depending on  his/her body shape  or seating
position, thus permitting airbag deployment.
CAUTION
If   the    "PASSENGER    AIRBAG
OFF"  indicator  is  not illuminated,
the  front   passenger  front  airbag
and  front  passenger   side  airbag
may  deploy   in  either   a  side   or
frontal collision.
If the "PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF" indicator illuminates or blinks con-
tinuously when  a person  of  adult size  sits in  the front  passenger's
seat  , it  could  be because  that  person isn't  sitting  properly  in the
seat.If this happens,  turn the vehicle  off, make sure the  seat back is
not reclined, have the passenger center on the seat cushion, with legs
comfortably extended, and the safety belt properly positioned. Restart
the vehicle and have  the person remain in this  position long enough
to allow the  system to detect the  person and activate the  passenger
airbag.
