Your vehicle is equipped with a front
passenger occupant classification sys-
tem. This system detects the conditions
1—4 (Shown in the table on page 65).
Based on these conditions, the systems
below are activated or deactivated:
Front passenger airbag
Side airbag on the front passenger
seat
Front passenger’s seat belt pretension-
er
The system monitors the weight and
load on the front passenger seat, and
the seat belt buckle switch to determine
conditions 1—4.
In order to ensure the system detects
the conditions correctly:
Do not place a heavy load on the front
passenger seat.
Do not attach a commercial seatback
table or other heavy item to the back
of the front passenger seat.
Do not apply pressure to the front pas-
senger seat by resting hands or legs
on the seatback.
US13068a
The “AIRBAG ON” and “AIRBAG OFF”
indicator lights indicate the actuation of
the front passenger airbag, side airbag
on the front passenger seat and front
passenger’s seat belt pretensioner.
The “AIRBAG ON” and “AIRBAG OFF”
indicator lights will be illuminated ini-
tially when the ignition key is turned to
the “ON” position. After about 4 sec-
onds, they will go off. After that, the
front passenger occupant classification
system operates and judges which indi-
cator light be illuminated.
The “AIRBAG OFF” indicator light will be
illuminated when the ignition switch is in
the “ON” position with the condition 2 in
the table shown below.
If the front passenger occupant classifica-
tion system determines that person of
adult size sits in the front passenger seat
but the “AIRBAG OFF” indicator light is
illuminated, one of the following is likely
to have occurred:
A rear passenger lifts the front passen-
ger seat cushion with their legs.
Objects are placed under the front pas-
senger seat.
The front passenger seatback is in
contact with the rear seat.
To ensure the system correctly detects the
presence or absence of a person of adult
size sitting in the front passenger seat,
make sure that none of the above occur.
