Safety features of your vehicle Air bag - Advanced Supplemental Restraint System
If the PASSENGER AIR BAG ( ) indica
-
tor is still on, ask the passenger to move
to the rear seat.
WARNING
PASSENGER AIR BAG ( ) light
Do not allow an adult passenger to ride
in the front seat when the PASSENGER
AIR BAG (
) indicator is appeared,
because the air bag will not deploy in the
event of a crash. The driver must
instruct the passenger to reposition him
-
self in the seat. Failure to properly posi
-
tion yourself may lead to air bag
deactivation resulting in air bag non-
deployment in a collision. If the PASSEN
-
GER AIR BAG ( ) indicator remains
appeared after the passenger reposi
-
tions themselves properly and the car is
restarted, it is recommended that pas
-
senger move to the rear seat because
the passenger's front air bag will not
deploy.
NOTICE
The PASSENGER AIR BAG ( ) indica
-
tor does not appear if the front passen
-
ger seat is occupied, the occupant
detection sensor will then classify the
front passenger after several more sec
-
onds Also, if the ENGINE START/STOP
button is turned to the ON position when
about 3 minutes have elapsed since the
vehicle is in OFF position.
僅 Even though your vehicle is equipped
with the Occupant Detection System,
never install a Child Restraint System
in the front passenger's seat. A
deploying air bag can forcefully strike
a child resulting in serious injuries or
death.
Any child age 13 and under should ride
in the rear seat. Children too large for
child restraints should use the available
lap/shoulder belts. No matter what type
of crash, children of all ages are safer
when restrained in the rear seat.
If the ODS is not working properly, the
Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) air
bag warning light on the instrument
panel will appear because the passen
-
ger's front air bag is connected with the
ODS. If there is a malfunction of the ODS
the PASSENGER AIRBAG (
) indicator
will not appear. In this case, the passen
-
ger's front airbag will inflate in frontal
impact crashes even if there is no occu
-
pant in the front passenger seat.
