• The front passenger seat is unoccupied.
• The system determines that a small child is present in a rear-facing

child seat that is properly installed according to the manufacturer’s
instructions. (The system may not automatically turn the airbag OFF
if a child seat is attached to the LATCH anchors on the front
passenger seat of the Regular Cab, therefore turn the airbag OFF with
the manual Airbag On/Off switch.)

• The system determines that a small child is present in a

forward-facing child restraint that is properly installed according to
the manufacturer’s instructions. (The system may not automatically
turn the airbag OFF if a child seat is attached to the LATCH anchors
on the front passenger seat of the Regular Cab, therefore turn the
airbag OFF with the manual Airbag On/Off switch.)

• The system determines that a small child is present in a booster seat.

(The system may not automatically turn the airbag OFF if a booster is
attached to the LATCH anchors on the front passenger seat of the
Regular Cab, therefore turn the airbag OFF with the manual Airbag
On/Off switch.)

• A front passenger takes his/her weight off of the seat for a period of

time.

• A smaller person, such as a child who has outgrown child restraints or

a small adult, occupies the front passenger seat.

Even with the front passenger sensing system, children 12 and
under should be properly restrained in the back seat.

When you install a child seat on the front passenger seat of a
Regular Cab, turn the Passenger Airbag On/Off switch to OFF.

When the front passenger seat is
occupied and the sensing system
has turned off the passenger’s
frontal air bag, the

Љpassenger air

bag off

Љ or Љpass air bag offЉ indicator will light and stay lit to remind you

that the front passenger frontal air bag is off. When the front passenger
seat is not occupied (empty seat) or in the event that the front
passenger frontal air bag is enabled (may inflate), the indicator light will
be unlit.

The indicator light is located in the center stack of the instrument panel
just above the radio.
