Acura 2013 MDX - Manual (Page 38)

To ensure that the passenger's
advanced front airbag system will
work properly, do not do anything
that would increase or decrease the
weight on the front passenger's seat.
This includes:
●
A second-row passenger pushing
or pulling on the back of the front
passenger's seat.
● Moving the front seat forcibly back
against cargo on the seat or floor
behind it.
●
Hanging heavy items on the front
passenger seat, or placing heavy
items in the seat-back pocket.
●
Moving the front passenger's seat
or seat-back forcibly back against
the folded right-side second-row
seat.
●
Second-row seat passenger should
not wedge objects or intentionally
force their feet under the front
passenger seat.
Also, make sure the floor mat behind
the front passenger's seat is hooked
to the floor mat anchor (see page
535 ). If it is not, the mat may
interfere with the proper operation of
the sensors and operation of the seat.
How Your Side Airbags Work
If you ever have a moderate to severe
side impact, sensors will detect rapid
acceleration and signal the control
unit to instantly inflate either the
driver's or the passenger's side
airbag and activate the seat belt
tensioner on the affected side.
