Passenger Airbag ON and OFF Switch (If Equipped)

WARNING: An airbag ON and OFF switch may have been
installed in this vehicle. Before driving, always look at the face of

the switch to be sure the switch is in the proper position in accordance
with these instructions and warnings. Failure to put the switch in a
proper position can increase the risk of serious injury or death in a
crash.

Note: The passenger airbag ON and OFF switch may be on vehicles with
no rear seats and a gross vehicle weight rating greater than 8500 pounds
(3856 kilograms). See the Towing chapter for more information.

Turning the Passenger Airbag Off

WARNING: If the light fails to illuminate when the passenger air
bag switch is in the OFF position and the ignition switch is in

ON, contact your authorized dealer as soon as possible.

WARNING: In order to avoid inadvertent activation of the
switch, always remove the ignition key from the passenger air

bag ON and OFF switch.

WARNING: An infant in a rear-facing seat faces a high risk of
serious or fatal injuries from a deploying passenger airbag. Rear

facing infant seats should never be placed in the front seats, unless the
passenger airbag is turned off.

1. Insert the ignition key, turn the switch to
off, and hold it in the off position while
removing the key.

2. When the ignition is turned to off, the off
light illuminates briefly, momentarily shuts
off and then turns back on. This indicates
that the passenger airbag is deactivated.
