If you had turned the airbag off with the switch,
remember to be sure to use the airbag off switch to turn
on the right front passenger’s airbag when you remove
the child restraint from the vehicle unless the person
who will be sitting there is a member of a passenger
airbag risk group. See Airbag Off Switch on page 1-56.
{CAUTION:
If the right front passenger’s 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.
Do not turn off the passenger’s airbag unless
the person sitting there is in a risk group
identified by the national government. See
Airbag Off Switch on page 1-56 for more on
this, including important safety information.
Airbag System
Your vehicle may have the following airbags:
• A frontal airbag for the driver.
• A frontal airbag for the right front passenger.
For frontal airbags, the word AIRBAG will appear on the
middle part of the steering wheel for the driver and
on the instrument panel for the right front passenger.
Airbags are designed to supplement the protection
provided by safety belts. Even though today’s airbags
are also designed to help reduce the risk of injury
from the force of an inflating bag, all airbags must inflate
very quickly to do their job.
