Turning the Passenger Airbag Back On
WARNINGS
The seatbelts for the driver and right
front passenger seating positions
have been specifically designed to
function together with the airbags in
certain types of crashes. When you turn off
your airbag, you not only lose the
protection of the airbag, you also may
reduce the effectiveness of your seatbelt
system, which was designed to work with
the airbag. If you are not a passenger who
meets the requirements stated in the
National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration or Transport Canada
deactivation criteria turning off the airbag
can increase the risk of serious injury or
death in a crash.

WARNINGS
If your vehicle has rear seats, always
transport children who are 12 years
and under in the rear seat. Always
use seatbelts and child restraints correctly.
Do not place a child in a rear facing infant
seat in the front seat unless your vehicle is
equipped with an airbag on and off switch
and the passenger airbag is turned off. This
is because the back of the infant seat is
too close to the inflating airbag and the
risk of a fatal injury to the infant when the
airbag inflates is substantial.
If the pass airbag off light is
illuminated when the passenger
airbag switch is on and the ignition
is on, have the passenger airbag switch
serviced at your authorized dealer
immediately.
The passenger airbag remains off until you
turn it back on.
