Airbag Off Switch
If your instrument panel has one of the switches
pictured in the following illustrations, your vehicle has
an airbag on-off switch that you can use to manually
turn on or off the right front passenger’s airbag.
If your vehicle does not have an airbag on-off switch,
it may have a passenger sensing system. See
Passenger Sensing System on page 1-69.
This switch should only be turned to airbag OFF if
the person in the right front passenger’s position is a
member of a passenger risk group identified by the
national government as follows:
Infant. An infant (less than 1 year old)
must ride in the front seat because:
•
My vehicle has no rear seat;
•
My vehicle has a rear seat too small to
accommodate a rear-facing infant seat; or
•
The infant has a medical condition which, according
to the infant’s physician, makes it necessary for
the infant to ride in the front seat so that the driver
can constantly monitor the child’s condition.
Child age 1 to 12. A child age 1 to 12 must
ride in the front seat because:
•
My vehicle has no rear seat;
•
Although children ages 1 to 12 ride in the rear seat(s)
whenever possible, children ages 1 to 12 sometimes
must ride in the front because no space is available
in the rear seat(s) of my vehicle; or
•
The child has a medical condition which, according to
the child’s physician, makes it necessary for the
child to ride in the front seat so that the driver can
constantly monitor the child’s condition.
