Seat occupancy recognition 3
The seat occupancy recognition system
deactivates the front and side airbags for
the front passenger if the front passenger
seat is not occupied or a Vauxhall child
restraint system with transponders 3 is
fitted on the front passenger seat. The
curtain airbag system 3 remains activated.
The control indicator for seat occupancy
recognition y is located in the instrument
panel. If control indicator y illuminates for
approx. 4 seconds when the ignition is
switched on, the vehicle is equipped with
seat occupancy recognition; see next
page, Fig. 17626 J.
If a Vauxhall child restraint system with
transponders 3 is installed, the control
y
indicator illuminates continuously as
soon as the system has detected the child
restraint system when the ignition is
switched on. Only then can a child restraint
system be used on the front passenger
seat.
