Passenger's seat occupant clas-
sification sensor system
The passenger's seat occupant classification
sensor system is attached to the front passen-
ger seat cushion and provides the airbag con-
trol unit with information regarding the
occupant on the front passenger seat. The air-
bag control unit controls deployment of the
passenger's front airbag in accordance with
the information it receives from this system.
The passenger's front airbag will not deploy
in an impact when the system senses no occu-
pant on the front passenger seat or a child in a
child restraint system. In this case, the pas-
senger's airbag off indicator will illuminate.
Refer to "Passenger's airbag off indicator" on
page 4-26.
If there is a problem involving the passen-
ger's seat occupant classification sensor sys-
tem, the SRS warning light in the instrument
panel will come on.
Refer to "SRS warning light" page 4-27.
