again.

Warning
If the airbag readiness light ever
comes on and stays on, it means
that something may be wrong
with the airbag system. For
example, the front outboard
passenger frontal airbag could
inflate even though the airbag
on-off switch is turned off.
To help avoid injury to yourself or
others, have the vehicle serviced
right away. See Airbag Readiness
Light for more information,
including important safety
information.
To turn the front passenger frontal
airbag on again, insert any key or a
coin into the switch, push in, and
move the switch to the ON position.
The front passenger frontal airbag is
now enabled (may inflate). When
the airbag is turned on, the
passenger airbag off light, in the
passenger airbag status indicator,
goes out.

dealer and the service manual have
information about servicing the
vehicle and the airbag system.

vehicle is turned off and the
battery is disconnected, an airbag
can still inflate during improper
service. You can be injured if you
are close to an airbag when it

metal, may keep the airbag system
from working properly.
The operation of the airbag system
can also be affected by changing

belts, the airbag sensing and
diagnostic module, steering wheel,
