To turn an air bag off
E00410600121
To turn an air bag off, follow these steps:
1. Insert the key into the key opening of the air bag ON-OFF
switch, push the key inwards until stopped by a touch and
then turn the key from the “ON” to the “OFF” position
(anticlockwise).
2. Be sure that the key is in the “OFF” position before
removing the key from the key opening of the air bag ON-
OFF switch.
3. Insert the key into the ignition switch, and turn the igni-
tion to the “ON” position.
The air bag off indicator lamp, with the word “OFF PASS AIR
BAG” (depending on which air bag has been turned off) should
illuminate. This tells you that the air bag is OFF and will NOT
deploy. (Refer to “Front passenger’s air bag off indicator lamp”
on page 2-56.)
The air bag will remain OFF, and will NOT deploy, until it is
turned ON again.
WARNING
!
● To reduce the risk of serious or fatal injury:
• If the indicator does not come on when the front
passenger’s air bag ON-OFF switch is turned OFF,
do not fit a rearward facing child restraint system
to the front passenger seat.
• Do not turn OFF the front passenger’s air bag ON-
OFF switch except when a rearward facing child
restraint system is fitted to the front passenger
seat.
