Passenger Airbag Status Indicator - Chevrolet Equinox Fuel Cell Owner's Manual

Passenger Airbag Status Indicator

Your vehicle has the passenger sensing system.
Your instrument panel has a passenger airbag status
indicator.
Then, after several more seconds, the status indicator
will light either ON or OFF to let you know the status of
the right front passenger's frontal airbag.
If the word ON is lit on the passenger airbag status
indicator, it means that the right front passenger's frontal
airbag is enabled (may inflate).
3-28
When you start the
vehicle, the passenger
airbag status indicator will
light ON and OFF for
several seconds as
a system check.
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.
