Pontiac Montana SV6 2007 Owner's Manual page 93

The passenger sensing system is designed to turn
off the right front passenger's airbag and side
impact airbags (if equipped) if:
•
The right front passenger seat is unoccupied.
•
The system determines that an infant is
present in a rear-facing infant seat.
•
The system determines that a small child is
present in a forward-facing child restraint.
•
The system determines that a small child is
present in a booster seat.
•
A right front passenger takes his/her weight off
of the seat for a period of time.
•
The right front passenger seat is occupied by
a smaller person, such as a child who has
outgrown child restraints.
•
Or, if there is a critical problem with the airbag
system or the passenger sensing system.
When the passenger sensing system has turned
off the right front passenger's airbag or airbags,
the off indicator will light and stay lit to remind you
that the airbag or airbags are off.
If a child restraint has been installed and the on
indicator is lit, turn the vehicle off. Remove the child
restraint from the vehicle and reinstall the child
restraint following the child restraint manufacturer's
directions and refer to Securing a Child Restraint in
the Right Front Seat Position on page 78.
If, after reinstalling the child restraint and restarting
the vehicle, the on indicator is still lit, check to make
sure that the vehicle's seatback is not pressing the
child restraint into the seat cushion. If this happens,
slightly recline the vehicle's seatback and adjust the
seat cushion if possible. Also make sure the child
restraint is not trapped under the vehicle head
restraint. If this happens, adjust the head restraint.
If the on indicator is still lit, secure the child in the
child restraint in a rear seat position in the
vehicle and check with your dealer.
The passenger sensing system is designed to
enable (may inflate) the right front passenger's
airbag or airbags anytime the system senses that a
person of adult size is sitting properly in the right
front passenger's seat. When the passenger
sensing system has allowed the airbag or airbags to
be enabled, the on indicator will light and stay lit to
remind you that the airbag or airbags are active.
