Passenger Airbag Off Indicator
When the passenger airbag off
indicator comes on
The indicator comes on to alert you that the
passenger's front airbag has been turned off.
This occurs when the weight sensors detect
65 lbs (29 kg) or less, the weight of an infant
or small child, on the seat.
Passenger Airbag Off Indicator
If the indicator comes on with no front passenger
and no objects on the passenger’s seat, or with an
adult riding there, something may be interfering
with the weight sensors. Such as:
An object hanging on the seat or in the seat-back •
pocket.
A child seat or other object pressing against the
•
rear of the seat-back.
A rear passenger pushing or pulling on the back
•
of the front passenger's seat.
The front seat or seat-back is forced back against
•
an object on the seat or floor behind it.
An object placed under the front passenger's
•
seat.
If none of these conditions exist, have your vehicle
checked by a dealer as soon as possible.
The passenger airbag off indicator may come on
and goes off repeatedly if the total weight on the
seat is near the airbag cutoff threshold.
Infants and small children should always ride properly restrained in a back seat.
Child Safety Î P.48
Objects placed on the seat can also cause the indicator to come on.
If the front passenger seat is empty, the passenger's front airbag will not deploy
and the indicator will not come on.
