37 Safety
Passenger Sensing System
Vehicles with a passenger sensing system
have indicator LEDs on the facia. The indi-
cators will be lit during the system check
when you turn the ignition switch to ST or
ON. When the system check is complete,
either the ON or the OFF LED, will be lit. See
Airbag warning light on page 85.
The passenger sensing system will turn off
the right front passenger’s frontal airbag
and side airbag under certain conditions.
The driver’s airbags is not part of the pas-
senger sensing system.
The passenger sensing system works with
sensors that are part of the right front pas-
senger’s seat and safety belt. The sensors
are designed to detect the presence of a
properly-seated occupant and determine if
the passenger’s frontal airbag should be
enabled (may inflate) or not.
Accident statistics show that children are
safer if they are restrained in the rear rather
than the front seat.
• Keep feet on the floor – never put feet
up on the dash, on the seat or out of
the window.
• Do not carry anything in your lap.
