SAFETY INFORMATION

Airbag System Indicators

n
If a problem occurs in the airbag system, the SRS indicator comes on and a
message appears on the Driver Information Interface.
Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) Indicator
When the power mode is set to ON, the indicator comes on for a few
seconds, then goes off. This tells you the system is working properly.
If the indicator comes on at any other
time besides vehicle start-up or does
not come on at all, have the system
checked by a dealer as soon as
possible. If you don't, your airbags and
seat belt tensioners may not work
properly when they are needed.
Ignoring the SRS indicator can result in serious injury or death if the airbag
systems or tensioners do not work properly.
Have your vehicle checked by a dealer as soon as possible if the SRS
indicator alerts you to a possible problem.

Passenger Airbag Off Indicator

The indicator comes on to alert you that
the passenger's front airbag has been
turned off. This occurs when the front
passenger's weight sensors detect
about 65 lbs (29 kg) or less, the weight
of an infant or small child, on the seat.
Children age 12 or under should always
ride properly restrained in a back seat.
If the front passenger's seat is empty,
the passenger's front airbag will not
deploy and the indicator will come on. The front passenger's knee airbag
will not deploy either.
To ensure the passenger is detected properly, confirm that:
• There is no child seat or other object pressing against the rear of the
seat-back.
• There is no rear passenger pushing or pulling on the back of the front
passenger's seat.
• The front seat or seat-back is not forced back against an object on the
seat or floor behind it.
• There is no object placed under or beside the front passenger's seat.
• The occupant is sitting in an upright position and the seat-back is not
excessively reclined.
• The occupant is not leaning against the door or center console.
• The occupant's feet are placed on the floor in front of them.
• There are no objects hanging from the front passenger's seat.
• Only small, lightweight objects are in the seat-back pocket.
The passenger front airbag off indicator may come on and go off repeatedly
if the total weight on the seat is near the airbag cutoff threshold.
Have your vehicle checked by a dealer as soon as possible if:
• All of the above conditions are met and the indicator comes on with an
adult seated in the front passenger seat.
• The seat is empty and the indicator is off.
Do not allow an adult passenger to ride in the front seat when the indicator
is on.
