The front passenger's frontal airbag ON
and OFF indicators show you the status of
the front passenger's SRS frontal airbag.
The indicators are located in the center
portion of the dashboard.
When the ignition switch is turned to the
"ON" position, both the ON and OFF indi-
cators illuminate for 6 seconds during
which time the system is checked. Follow-
ing the system check, both indicators ex-
tinguish for 2 seconds. After that, one of
the indicators illuminates depending on
the status of the front passenger's SRS
frontal airbag determined by the Subaru
advanced frontal airbag system monitor-
ing.
If the front passenger's SRS frontal airbag
is activated, the passenger's frontal airbag
ON indicator will illuminate while the OFF
PASS AIR BAG indicator will remain extinguished.
If the front passenger's SRS frontal airbag
is deactivated, the passenger's frontal air-
bag ON indicator will remain extinguished
while the OFF indicator will illuminate.
If both the ON and OFF indicators remain
lit or extinguished simultaneously, the sys-
tem is faulty. Contact your SUBARU deal-
