The "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF"
indicator illuminates after the ignition
key is turned to the "ON" position or
after the engine is started. If the front
passenger seat is unoccupied or is
occupied by very small person, or is
occupied by someone who is improp-
erly seated, the "PASSENGER AIR
BAG OFF" indicator will remain illumi-
nated. If the front passenger seat is
occupied by someone of adult size and
body shape, the "PASSENGER AIR
BAG OFF" indicator will turn off after
approximately 4 seconds.
If the front passenger's seat is unoccu-
pied, the “PASSENGER AIR BAG
OFF” indicator will turn on, and the
front passenger's air bag will not
deploy in frontal crashes.
If the “PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF”
indicator illuminates, the front passen-
ger’s air bag will not deploy in frontal
crashes.

The system detects a person who is generally adult size as an adult, thus allowing the pas-
senger air bag 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 air bag deployment.
•
*
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 air bag deployment.

CAUTION
If the "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF" indicator illuminates or blinks continuous-
ly 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 cen-
ter 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 air bag.
If the front passenger’s seat is occu-
pied by a person of adult size, the
“PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF” indica-
tor is not illuminated and the front pas-
senger’s air bag will deploy in frontal
crashes.
