Passenger Not Sitting Correct; Passenger Air Bag Deactivation Indicator Lights - Fiat 124 SPIDER 2017 Owner's Manual

This system shuts off the passenger
front and side Air Bags and seat belt
pretensioner system, so make sure the
passenger Air Bag deactivation
indicator light turns on.
The air bag/seat belt pretensioner
system warning light flashes and the
passenger Air Bag deactivation
indicator light illuminates if the sensors
have a possible malfunction. If this
happens, the passenger front and side
Air Bags and seat belt pretensioner
system will not deploy.
Note: If a passenger is seated as
shown in the following figure the
passenger occupant classification
sensor cannot detect a passenger
sitting on the passenger's seat correctly
and the deployment/non-deployment of
the Air Bags cannot be controlled as
indicated in the passenger Air Bag
deactivation indicator light on/off
condition chart.
Warning!
If a child restraint system, child, small
teenager or adult in the front passenger
seat is seated improperly, the occupant
may provide an output signal to the
occupant classification sensor that is
different from the occupant's properly
seated weight input. This may result in
serious injury or death in a collision.
