Front passenger's airbag ON-OFF
switch
The front passenger's airbag ON-OFF switch can
be used to disable the front passenger's airbag. If
you have a rearward facing child restraint system
that cannot be fitted to any seat other than the front
passenger seat, be sure to turn OFF the front passen-
ger's airbag ON-OFF switch before using it. (Refer
to "To turn an airbag off" on page 2-36.)
The front passenger's airbag ON-OFF switch is lo-
cated in the glove box.

Front passenger's airbag OFF indication lamp
The front passenger's airbag OFF indication lamp
is located in the instrument panel.
E00410100070
The indication lamp normally comes on when the
ignition switch is turned to the "ON" position, and
goes off a few seconds later.
When the front passenger's airbag ON-OFF switch
is turned OFF, the indication lamp will stay on to
show that the front passenger's airbag is not opera-
tional.
When the front passenger's airbag ON-OFF switch
is turned ON, the indication lamp goes off to show
that the front passenger's airbag is operational.
WARNING
l Do not fit any accessory that makes the in-
dication lamp impossible to see, and do
not cover the indication lamp with a stick-
er. You would not be able to verify the sta-
tus of the passenger airbag system.

WARNING
l
To reduce risk of serious or fatal injury:
• Always remove the key from the igni-
tion switch before operating a front
passenger's airbag ON-OFF switch.
Failure to do so could adversely affect
the airbag performance.
• Wait at least 60 seconds to operate the
front passenger's airbag ON-OFF
switch after turning the ignition
switch from "ON"
"LOCK" position.
The SRS airbag system is designed to
retain enough voltage to deploy the air-
bag.
• Always remove the key from the front
passenger's airbag ON-OFF switch af-
ter operating that switch.
Failure to do so could lead to improp-
er position of the front passenger's air-
bag ON-OFF switch.
• Do not turn OFF the front passen-
ger's airbag ON-OFF switch except
when a rearward facing child re-
straint system is fitted to the front pas-
senger seat.
