The passenger’s airbag off indicator is
located in the instrument panel.
The indicator normally comes on when the
electric motor switch is turned to the “ON”
position and goes out a few seconds later.
In the following situations, the indicator will
stay on to show that the passenger’s front air-
bag is not operational.
 The front passenger’s seat is not occupied.

The system senses that a child is in the
child restraint system on the front passen-
ger’s seat.
When the passenger’s seat occupant classifi-
cation sensor system senses there is a person
seated in the front passenger’s seat, the indi-
cator goes out to show that the passenger’s
front airbag is operational.
