→ Fig. 68 and → Fig. 69 . Such objects could cause serious
injury in a collision, especially if an airbag inflates.
Never attach accessories to the windshield above the
passenger front airbag, such as GPS navigation units or music
players. Such objects could cause serious injury in a collision,
especially if an airbag inflates.
Never recline the front passenger seat to transport objects.
Items can also move into the deployment area of the side
airbags or the front airbag during braking or in a sudden
maneuver. Objects near the airbags can fly dangerously
through the passenger compartment and cause injury,
particularly when the seat is reclined and the airbags inflate.
Always make sure that there is nothing on the front passenger
seat that will cause the capacitive passenger detection system
in the seat to signal to the Airbag System that the seat is
occupied by a person when it is not, or to signal that it is
occupied by someone who is heavier than the person actually
sitting on the seat. The presence of an object could cause the
passenger front airbag to be turned on when it should be off,
or could cause the airbag to work in a way that is different from
the way it would have worked without the object on the seat.
Always make sure that nothing is on the front passenger seat
when the backrest is folded forward.
Always make sure that the status signaled by the
PASSENGER AIR BAG light is correct for the way that
the front passenger seat is being used.
