Airbag Readiness Light - Pontiac Vibe 2007 Owner's Manual

Your vehicle also has a safety belt reminder light
for the right front passenger position.
When the key is turned to ON or START, this light
will come on as a reminder for the right front
passenger to fasten their safety belt. This light will
flash until the right front passenger's safety belt
is buckled. The passenger's safety belt reminder
light will not come on if the right front passenger's
belt is already buckled or if a sensor does not
detect the weight of a passenger in that seat.
If something is placed on the right front passenger
seat, the sensors in the seat may detect that
object and cause the right front passenger safety
belt reminder light to come on. If this happens,
remove the object.

This light is located on

Airbag Readiness Light

There is an airbag readiness light on the instrument
panel cluster, which shows the airbag symbol. The
system checks the airbag's electrical system for
malfunctions. The light tells you if there is an
electrical problem. The system monitors the airbag
sensor assembly, front airbag sensors,
seat-mounted side impact and roof-mounted airbag
sensors, driver's seat position sensor, driver's seat
belt buckle switch, right front occupant sensing
system and indicator light, front passenger's seat
belt buckle switch, seat belt pretensioner
assemblies, inflators, interconnecting wiring and
power sources. For more information on the airbag
system, see Airbag System on page 63.
This light will come on
briefly when you start
your vehicle, then
it should go out. This
means the system
is ready.
