Passenger Airbag Status Indicator - Buick 2007 Rendezvous Owner's Manual

Passenger Airbag Status Indicator

Your vehicle has the passenger sensing system.
Your rearview mirror has a passenger airbag
status indicator.
United States
When the ignition key is turned to ON or START,
the passenger airbag status indicator will light
ON and OFF, or the symbol for on and off,
for several seconds as a system check. Then,
after several more seconds, the status indicator
Canada
will light either ON or OFF, or either the on or off
symbol to let you know the status of the right
front passenger's frontal airbag.
If the word ON or the on symbol is lit on the
passenger airbag status indicator, it means that
the right front passenger's frontal airbag is enabled
(may inflate).
CAUTION:
{
If the on indicator comes on when you have
a rear-facing child restraint installed in the
right front passenger's seat, it means that
the passenger sensing system has not
turned off the passenger's frontal airbag.
A child in a rear-facing child restraint can
be seriously injured or killed if the right
front passenger's airbag inflates. This is
because the back of the rear-facing child
restraint would be very close to the
inflating airbag. Do not use a rear-facing
child restraint in the right front passenger's
seat if the airbag is turned on.
