Seating and Safety Restraints
After all occupants have adjusted their seats and put on safety belts, it's
very important that they continue to sit upright, with their back against
the seatback, with their feet comfortably extended on the floor while the
vehicle is still in motion. Sitting improperly can increase the chance of
injury in a crash event. For example, if an occupant slouches, lies down,
turns sideways, sits forward, leans forward or sideways, or puts one or
both feet up, the chance of injury during a crash is greatly increased.
Sitting improperly out of position or with the seatback reclined
too far can take off weight from the seat cushion and affect the
decision of the passenger sensing system, resulting in serious injury or
death in a crash.
Always sit upright against your seatback, with your feet on the floor.
The front passenger sensing system may detect small or medium objects
placed on the seat cushion. For most objects that are in the front
passenger seat, the passenger airbag will be disabled. Even though the
passenger airbag is disabled, the pass airbag off light may or may not
be illuminated according to the table below.
Objects
Empty seat
Small (i.e. 3 ring
binder, small purse,
bottled water)
Medium (i.e. heavy
briefcase, fully packed
luggage)
Empty seat, Small or
medium object with
safety belt buckled
In case there is a problem with the
passenger sensing system, the
airbag readiness light in the
instrument cluster will stay lit. Do
NOT attempt to repair or service
the system; take your vehicle immediately to the dealer.
The front passenger airbag is not designed to offer protection to
an occupant in the center front seating position.
