Air bag warning light

The purpose of the air bag warning light
in your instrument panel is to alert you of
a potential problem with your air bag -
Supplemental Restraint System (SRS).

When the ignition switch is turned ON,
the warning light should illuminate for
approximately 6 seconds, then go off.
Have the system checked if:
• The light does not turn on briefly when

you turn the ignition ON.

• The light stays on after illuminating for

approximately 6 seconds.

• The light comes on while the vehicle is

in motion.

• The light blinks when the ignition

switch is in ON position.

WARNING

• Extreme Hazard! Do not use a

rearward facing child restraint on
a seat protected by an air bag in
front of it!

• Never put a child restraint in the

front passenger’s seat. If the front
passenger air bag inflates, it
would cause serious or fatal
injuries.

• When children are seated in the

rear outboard seats of vehicle
equipped with side and/or curtain
air bags, be sure to install the
child restraint system as far away
from the door side as possible,
and securely lock the child
restraint system in position.
Inflation of side and/or curtain air
bags could cause serious injury
or death to an infant or child.
