If you see any of these indications,
the airbags and seat belt tensioners
may not work properly when you
need them.

The SRS indicator alerts
you to a potential problem

with your airbags or seat belt
tensioners.

When you turn the ignition switch to
ON (II), this indicator will come on
briefly then go out. This tells you the
system is working properly.

If the indicator comes on at any
other time, or does not come on at all,
you should have the system checked
by your dealer. For example:

If the SRS indicator does not come
on after you turn the ignition
switch to ON (II).

If the indicator stays on after the
engine starts.

If the indicator comes on or
flashes on and off while you drive.

If the Side Airbag Off Indicator
comes on (see page

), have the

passenger sit upright. Once the
passenger is out of the airbag’s
deployment path, the system will
turn the airbag back on, and the
indicator will go out.

There will be some delay between
the moment the passenger moves
into or out of the airbag deployment
path and when the indicator comes
on or goes off.

A front seat passenger should not
use a cushion or other object as a
backrest. It may prevent the cutoff
system from working properly.
