indicator will light ON and OFF, or the symbol for on
and off, for several seconds as a system check.

Canada
Then, after several more seconds, the status indicator
will light either ON or OFF, or either the on or off symbol,
to let you know the status to let you know the status
of the right front passenger frontal and seat-mounted
side impact airbags (if equipped).
If the word ON or the on symbol is lit on the passenger
airbag status indicator, it means that the right front
passenger frontal airbag and seat-mounted side impact
airbag (if equipped) are enabled (may inflate).
CAUTION:
{
If the on indicator comes on when you have a
rear-facing child restraint installed in the right
front passenger's seat, it means that the
passenger sensing system has not turned
off the passenger's frontal airbag and
seat-mounted side impact airbag (if equipped).
A child in a rear-facing child restraint can be
seriously injured or killed if the right front
passenger's airbag inflates. This is because the
back of the rear-facing child restraint would be
very close to the inflating airbag. Do not use a
rear-facing child restraint in the right front
passenger's seat if the airbag is turned on.
