CAUTION: (Continued)
Even though the passenger sensing
system is designed to turn off the
passenger's frontal airbag and side
impact airbag (if equipped) if the system
detects a rear-facing child restraint, no
system is fail-safe, and no one can
guarantee that an airbag will not deploy
under some unusual circumstance, even
though it is turned off. We recommend
that rear-facing child restraints be
transported in vehicles with a rear seat
that will accommodate a rear-facing child
restraint, whenever possible.
If you need to secure a forward-facing
child restraint in the passenger's seat,
always move the passenger's seat as far
back as it will go. It is better to secure the
child restraint in a rear seat.
The passenger sensing system is designed to turn
off the passenger's frontal airbag and side
impact airbag (if equipped) if:
•
The passenger's seat is unoccupied.
•
The system determines that an infant is
present in a rear-facing infant seat.
•
The system determines that a small child is
present in a forward-facing child restraint.
•
The system determines that a small child is
present in a booster seat.
•
A passenger takes his/her weight off of the
seat for a period of time.
•
The passenger's seat is occupied by a smaller
person, such as a child who has outgrown
child restraints.
•
Or, if there is a critical problem with the airbag
system or the passenger sensing system.
When the passenger's frontal airbag and side
impact airbag (if equipped) have been turned off
by the passenger sensing system, the off indicator
will light and stay lit to remind you that the
airbags are off.
