If there is a problem with the airbag
system, a Driver Information Center

See Airbag System Messages on
page 5-38.

Passenger Airbag Status

Indicator

The vehicle has a passenger
sensing system. See Passenger
Sensing System on page 3-27 for
important safety information. The
passenger airbag status indicator is
in the overhead console.
When the vehicle is started, the
passenger airbag status indicator
will light the symbol for on and off
for several seconds as a system
check. Then, after several more
seconds, the status indicator will
light either the on or off symbol to let
you know the status of the front
outboard passenger frontal airbag
and knee airbag.
If the on symbol is lit on the
passenger airbag status indicator, it
means that the front outboard
passenger frontal airbag and knee
airbag are allowed to inflate.
If the off symbol is lit on the airbag
status indicator, it means that the
passenger sensing system has
turned off the front outboard
passenger frontal airbag and knee
airbag.
If, after several seconds, both status
indicator lights remain on, or if there
are no lights at all, there may be a
problem with the lights or the
passenger sensing system. See
your dealer for service.
