Passenger Airbag Status Indicator
The vehicle has a passenger sensing system. See
Passenger Sensing System on page 1-85 for important
safety information. The instrument panel has a
passenger airbag status indicator.
When the vehicle is
started, the passenger
airbag status indicator will
light the symbol for on
and off for several seconds
as a system check.
If you use remote start to start your vehicle from a
distance, if equipped, you may not see the system
check. Then, after several more seconds, the status
indicator will light either the on or off symbol to let you
know the status of the right front passenger frontal
and seat-mounted side impact airbags (if equipped).
If the on symbol is lit on the passenger airbag status
indicator, it means that the right front passenger frontal
airbag and seat-mounted side impact airbag (if equipped)
are enabled (may inflate).
If the off symbol is lit on the airbag status indicator, it
means that the passenger sensing system has turned off
the right front passenger frontal airbag and
seat-mounted side impact airbag (if equipped).
If, after several seconds, both status indicator lights
remain on, or if there are no lights at all, there may be a
problem with the lights or the passenger sensing
system. See your dealer/retailer for service.

CAUTION:
If the airbag readiness light ever comes on and
stays on, it means that something may be wrong
with the airbag system. To help avoid injury to
yourself or others, have the vehicle serviced right
away. See Airbag Readiness Light on page 3-33
for more information, including important safety
information.
