GMC Sierra 2015 Owner's Manual page 90

Medical Condition. A passenger
has a medical condition which,
according to his or her physician:
Causes the passenger airbag to
pose a special risk for the
passenger; and
Makes the potential harm from
the passenger airbag in a crash
greater than the potential harm
from turning off the airbag and
allowing the passenger, even if
belted, to hit the instrument
panel or windshield in a crash.
Warning
If the front outboard passenger
frontal airbag is turned off for a
person who is not in a risk group
identified by the national
government, that person will not
have the extra protection of an
airbag. In a crash, the airbag will
not be able to inflate and help
protect the person sitting there.
Warning (Continued)
Do not turn off the front outboard
passenger frontal airbag unless
the person sitting there is in a risk
group.
To turn off the front outboard
passenger frontal airbag, insert the
ignition key into the switch, push in,
and move the switch to the off
position.
The word OFF or the off symbol will
come on in the passenger airbag
status indicator located in the
overhead console to let you know
(Continued)
that the front outboard passenger
Seats and Restraints
frontal airbag is off, after the system
check is completed. The airbag off
light will come on and stay on to let
you know that the front outboard
passenger frontal airbag is off. See
Airbag On-Off Light on page 5-18.
The front outboard passenger
airbag will remain off until you turn it
back on again.
Warning
If the airbag readiness light ever
comes on and stays on, it means
that something may be wrong
with the airbag system. For
example, the front outboard
passenger frontal airbag could
inflate even though the airbag
on-off switch is turned off.
To help avoid injury to yourself or
others, have the vehicle serviced
right away. See Airbag Readiness
Light on page 5-17 for more
information, including important
safety information.
