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,  the front pas-
senger  airbag   will  not  deploy   in
either a side or frontal collision.
If the "PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF"
indicator is not illuminated, the front
passenger  airbag   may  deploy  in
frontal collision.

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 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.
