If the indicator comes on at any
other time, or does not come on at all,
you should have the system checked
by your dealer. For example:
When you turn the ignition switch to
the ON (II) position, this indicator
comes on for several seconds then
goes off. This tells you the system is
working properly.
If the indicator comes on or
flashes on and off while you drive.
If the indicator stays on after the
engine starts.
If the SRS indicator does not come
on after you turn the ignition
switch to the ON (II) position.
The SRS indicator alerts you to a
potential problem with your airbags
or seat belt tensioners.
This indicator alerts you that the
passenger’s side airbag has been
automatically shut off. It does
mean there is a problem with your
side airbags.
When you turn the ignition switch to
the ON (II) position, the indicator
should come on for several seconds
and then go off (see page
). If it
doesn’t come on, stays on, or comes
on while driving without a passenger
in the front seat, have the system
checked. You will also see a ‘‘CHECK
AIRBAG SYSTEM’’ message on the
multi-information display.
If you see any of these indications,
the airbags and seat belt tensioners
may not work properly when you
need them.
You will also see a ‘‘PASSENGER
SIDE AIRBAG OFF’’ message on the
multi-information display.
