*1) The OCS system uses a field to evalu-
ate a person's size to determine
whether the airbag should deploy. It is
possible for a child to be detected and
activate the OCS, thus allowing the
airbag to deploy. To maximize safety,
do not allow children to ride in the
front passenger seat.
*2) Never install a child restraint system
on the front passenger seat.
Condition and operation in the front passenger occupant classification system
!
WARNING:
Riding in an improper position or placing
weight on the front passenger's seat
when it is unoccupied by a passenger
adversely affects the occupant classifi-
cation system (OCS). Your OCS is de-
signed to resist electronic waves, but do
not place an electronic device such as
laptop computer on or near the seat
cushion since it may defeat the proper
functioning of the OCS.

Always be sure that you and all vehicle
occupants are seated and restrained prop-
erly (sitting upright with the seat in an
upright position, centered on the seat
cushion, with the person's legs comfort-
ably extended, feet on the floor, and
wearing the safety belt properly) for the
most effective protection by the air bag
and the safety belt.

the passenger takes actions which can
affect the detection system. These in-
clude:
(1) Failing to sit in an upright position.
(2) Leaning against the door or center
console.
(3) Sitting towards the sides or the
front of the seat.
(4) Putting legs on the dashboard or
resting them on other locations.
(5) Improperly wearing the safety belt.
(6) Reclining the seatback.
