Seats and Restraints
When the passenger sensing
system has allowed the airbag
to be enabled, the ON
indicator will light and stay lit
as a reminder that the airbag
is active.
For some children, including
children in child restraints, and
for very small adults, the
passenger sensing system
may or may not turn off the
front outboard passenger
frontal airbag, depending upon
the person's seating posture
and body build. Everyone in
the vehicle who has outgrown
child restraints should wear a
seat belt properly
—
whether
or not there is an airbag for
that person.

If the On Indicator Is Lit
for a Child Restraint
The passenger sensing
system is designed to turn off
the front outboard passenger
frontal airbag if the system
determines that an infant is
present in a child restraint. If a
child restraint has been
installed and the ON indicator
is lit:
1. Turn the vehicle off.
2. Remove the child restraint
from the vehicle.
3. Remove any additional
items from the seat such
as blankets, cushions, seat
covers, seat heaters,
or seat massagers.
4. Reinstall the child restraint
following the directions
provided by the child
restraint manufacturer and
refer to Securing Child
Restraints (With the Seat
Belt in the Rear Seat)
or Securing Child
Restraints (With the Seat
Belt in the Front Seat)
Make sure the seat belt
retractor is locked by
pulling the shoulder belt all
the way out of the
retractor when installing
the child restraint, even if
the child restraint is
equipped with a seat belt
lock off. When the
retractor lock is set, the
belt can be tightened but
not pulled out of the
retractor.
5. If, after reinstalling the
child restraint and
restarting the vehicle, the
ON indicator is still lit, turn
the vehicle off. Then
slightly recline the vehicle
