Side Airbag Cutoff System
■
To prevent a passenger from possible injury by an inflating side airbag, the
passenger side airbag is automatically turned off when:
The height sensors detect a child or small statured adult is seated in the
●
passenger seat.
The position sensors detect that the passenger is leaning into the deployment
●
path of the side airbag.
When the side airbag cutoff system is activated, the side airbag off indicator comes
on.
Side Airbag Off Indicator
■
If the side airbag off indicator comes on, have the passenger sit upright. A few
seconds after the passenger is sitting properly, the side airbag will automatically be
turned on, and the indicator will go off.
If the passenger is a child, the indicator will remain on so long as the child is seated.
Since this vehicle does not have a back seat, we recommend that you do not carry
any child who is not large enough and mature enough to ride in front.
