Knowing your vehicle
(Continued)
• For very small person, the
occupant classification sys-
tem may or may not turn off
the right front passenger's
frontal airbag,
depending
upon the person's seating
posture and body build.
Everyone in your vehicle
should wear a safety belt
properly -- whether or not
there is an air bag for that per-
son.
• If the front seat passenger
changes their seating position
(for example, by not sitting
upright, by sitting on the edge
of the seat, or by otherwise
being out of position), the
"PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF"
indicator may be turned on,
and the passenger's airbag
may not deploy in a collision.
Always be sure to sit properly
in the front passenger’s seat
and wear the safety belt prop-
erly and do not do any of the
following.
