When the airbag is turned off, an
indicator in the center of the
dashboard will come on indicating
passenger airbag ''OFF'' (see page
31 ).
If the weight sensors detect that
there is no passenger in the front
seat, the airbag will be off. However,
the Passenger Airbag Off indicator
will not come on.
To ensure that the passenger's
advanced front airbag system will
work properly, do not do anything
that would increase or decrease the
weight on the front passenger's seat.
This includes:
A rear passenger pushing or
pulling on the back of the front
passenger's seat.
Additional Information About Your Airbags
Moving the front seat forcibly
back against cargo on the seat or
floor behind it.
Hanging heavy items on the front
passenger seat, or placing heavy
items in the seat-back pocket.
If equipped
Also, make sure the floor mat behind
the front passenger's seat is hooked
to the floor mat anchor. If it is not,
the mat may interfere with the
proper operation of the sensors and
operation of the seat.
