Page: 86 / 584

The passenger sensing system is designed to turn off
the right front passenger’s frontal air bag if:
•
the right front passenger seat is unoccupied
•
the system determines that an infant is present in a
rear-facing infant seat
•
the system determines that a small child is present
in a forward-facing child restraint
•
the system determines that a small child is present
in a booster seat
•
a right front passenger takes his/her weight off of
the seat for a period of time
•
the right front passenger seat is occupied by a
smaller person, such as a child who has outgrown
child restraints
•
the air bag off switch is in the off position
•
or if there is a critical problem with the air bag
system or the passenger sensing system
When the passenger’s frontal air bag has been turned
off either by the passenger sensing system or by the air
bag off switch, the off indicator will light and stay lit to
remind you that the air bag is off.
If a child restraint has been installed and the on indicator
is lit, turn the vehicle off. Remove the child restraint from
the vehicle and reinstall the child restraint following the
child restraint manufacturer’s directions and refer to
Securing a Child Restraint in the Right Front Seat
Position (Regular and Extended Cab) on page 1-61 or the
front seat instructions under “Securing a Child Restraint
Designed for the LATCH System” in the Index.
