How the SRS Indicator Light
Works
The SRS indicator light
alerts you to a potential
problem with your front airbags.
This light will also alert you to a
potential problem with your side
airbags or passenger's side airbag
automatic cutoff system (see page
49 ).
When you turn the ignition ON (II),
this indicator will light briefly then
go out. This tells you that the system
is working properly.

Driver and Passenger Safety
If the light comes on at any other
time, or does not come on at all, you
should have the system checked by
your dealer. For example:
If the SRS indicator light does not
come on after you turn the ignition
ON (II).
If the light stays on after the
engine starts.
If the light comes on or flashes on
and off while you drive.
If you see any of these indications,
your front or side airbags may not
deploy, or your passenger's side
airbag automatic cutoff system may
not work properly. See your Acura
dealer as soon as possible.
Ignoring the SRS indicator light
can result in serious injury or
death if the airbags or cutoff
system do not work properly.
Have your vehicle checked by a
dealer as soon as possible if
the SRS light alerts you to a
potential problem.
