sure the 4 0 indicator lamp
is illuminated, indicating that the
passenger front air bag is deactivated.
Should the 4 0 indicator
lamp not illuminate or go out while the
restraint is installed, please check
installation.
Periodically check the 4 0
indicator lamp while driving to make
sure the 4 0 indicator lamp
is illuminated.
If the 4 0 indicator lamp
goes out or remains out, do not transport
a child on the passenger seat until the
system has been repaired.
A child in a rear-facing child restraint
on the passenger seat may be seriously
injured or even killed if the passenger
front air bag inflates.
If you place a child in a forward-facing
R
child restraint on the passenger seat,
move the seat as far back as possible, use
the proper child restraint recommended
for the age, size and weight of the child
by the seat manufacturer, and secure
child restraint with the vehicle's seat
belt according to the child seat manu-
facturer's instructions. For children
larger than the typical 12‑month‑old
child, the passenger front air bag may or
may not be activated.
i
Deployment of the driver front air bag
does not mean that the passenger front
air bag also should have deployed.
The Occupant Classification System may
have determined
that the seat was empty or occupied by the
R
weight up to or less than that of a typical
12‑month‑old child seated in a standard
child restraint — both instances where
the system suppresses deployment of the
passenger front air bag even though the
impact met the criteria and was of suf-
ficient severity to deploy the driver
front air bag
that the seat was occupied by a small
R
individual (such as a young teenager or
a small adult) or a child weighing more
than the weight of a typical 12‑month‑old
child in a standard child restraint —
instances where the system may suppress
deployment of the passenger front air
bag even though the impact met the cri-
teria and was of sufficient severity to
deploy the driver front air bag
Passenger front air bag off indicator
lamp
The indicator lamp is located on the over-
head control panel.
Passenger front air bag off indicator
lamp : illuminates when the passenger
front air bag is deactivated.
G WARNING
When the SRS indicator lamp 6 and the
4 0 indicator lamp are lit at
the same time, there is a malfunction in the
Occupant Classification System.
In order to ensure proper operation of the
air bag system and OCS:
Have the system checked as soon as pos-
R
sible by qualified technicians. Contact
an authorized electric drive smart
center.
Sit properly belted in a position that is
R
as upright as possible with your back
against the seat backrest.
