Chevrolet 2008 Equinox Owner's Manual page 73

CAUTION:
{
If the airbag readiness light in the instrument
panel cluster ever comes on and stays on,
it means that something may be wrong with
the airbag system. If this ever happens, have
the vehicle serviced promptly, because an
adult-size person sitting in the right front
passenger's seat may not have the protection
of the airbag(s). See Airbag Readiness Light
on page 3-27 for more on this, including
important safety information.
A thick layer of additional material, such as a blanket
or cushion, or aftermarket equipment such as seat
covers, seat heaters, and seat massagers can affect
how well the passenger sensing system operates.
We recommend that you not use seat covers or
other aftermarket equipment other than any that GM
has approved for your specific vehicle. See Adding
Equipment to Your Airbag-Equipped Vehicle on
page 1-70 for more information about modifications
that can affect how the system operates.
CAUTION:
{
Stowing of articles under the passenger's seat
or between the passenger's seat cushion
and seatback may interfere with the proper
operation of the passenger sensing system.
