The front passenger sensing system uses
a passenger airbag off indicator which will
illuminate and stay lit to remind you that
the front passenger frontal airbag is
disabled. The indicator lamp is located in
the center stack of the instrument panel.
Note: The passenger airbag off light will
illuminate for a short period of time when
the ignition is first turned on to confirm it is
functional.
The front passenger sensing system is
designed to disable (will not inflate) the
front passenger’s frontal airbag when the
front passenger seat is unoccupied, or a
rear facing infant seat, a forward-facing
child restraint, or a booster seat is
detected.
• When the front passenger sensing
system disables (will not inflate) the
front passenger frontal airbag, the
passenger airbag status indicator will
illuminate and stay lit to remind you
that the front passenger frontal airbag
is disabled.
• If the child restraint has been installed
and the passenger airbag status
indicator illuminates, then turn the
vehicle off, remove the child restraint
from the vehicle and reinstall the
restraint following the child restraint
manufacturer’s instructions.
The front passenger sensing system is
designed to enable (may inflate) the front
passenger’s frontal airbag anytime the
system senses that a person of adult size
is sitting properly in the front passenger
seat.
• When the front passenger sensing
system enables the front passenger
frontal airbag (may inflate), the
passenger airbag status indicator will
not illuminate.
If a person of adult size is sitting in the front
passenger's seat, but the passenger airbag
status indicator lamp is lit, it is possible
that the person isn't sitting properly in the
seat. If this happens:
• Turn the vehicle off and ask the person
to place the seat back in the full upright
position.
• Have the person sit upright in the seat,
centered on the seat cushion, with the
person's legs comfortably extended.
• Restart the vehicle and have the person
remain in this position for about two
minutes. This will allow the system to
detect that person and enable the
passenger’s frontal airbag.
• If the passenger airbag status indicator
lamp remains lit even after this, the
person should be advised to ride in the
rear seat.
