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 and the front passenger air bag
will not deploy in frontal crashes. 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 6 sec-
onds and the front passenger's air bag
will deploy in frontal crashes.
If the "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF"
indicator illuminates, the front passen-
ger air bag will not deploy in either a
side or frontal collision.
If the "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF"
indicator is not illuminated, the front
passenger air bag may deploy in
frontal collision.
