Additional Information About Your Airbags
PASSENGER'S
SEAT WEIGHT
SENSORS
The passenger's advanced front
airbag system has weight sensors
under the seat. Although Acura does
not encourage carrying an infant or
small child in front, if the sensors
detect the weight of an infant or
small child (up to about 65 lbs or 29
kg), the system will automatically
turn the passenger's front airbag off.

Be aware that objects placed on the
passenger's seat can also cause the
airbag to be turned off.
When the airbag is turned off, a
''passenger airbag off'' indicator in
the center of the dashboard comes
on (see page
).
34
If the weight sensors detect there is
no passenger in the front seat, the
airbag will be off. However, the
passenger airbag off indicator will
not come on.
To ensure that the passenger's
advanced front airbag system will
work properly,
do not do anything
that would increase or decrease the
weight on the front passenger's seat.
This includes:
A rear passenger pushing or
pulling on the back of the front
passenger's seat.
Moving the front seat forcibly
back against cargo on the seat or
floor behind it.
Hanging heavy items on the front
passenger seat, or placing heavy
items in the seat-back pocket.
Moving the front seat or seat-back
forcibly back against the folded
rear seat.
