turned off, and the hazard warning
flashers can be turned off using the
controls for those features. If any of

Warning
A crash severe enough to inflate the
airbags may have also damaged
important functions in the vehicle,
such as the fuel system, brake and
steering systems, etc. Even if the
vehicle appears to be drivable after
a moderate crash, there may be
concealed damage that could make
it difficult to safely operate the
vehicle.
Use caution if you should attempt
to restart the engine after a crash
has occurred.
In many crashes severe enough to
inflate the airbag, windscreens are
broken by vehicle deformation.
Additional windscreen breakage may
also occur from the front outboard
passenger airbag.
.
Airbags are designed to inflate only
once. After an airbag inflates, you
will need some new parts for the
airbag system. If you do not get
them, the airbag system will not be
there to help protect you in another
crash. A new system will include
airbag modules and possibly other
parts. The service manual for the
vehicle covers the need to replace
other parts.
.
The vehicle has a crash sensing and
diagnostic module which records
information after a crash. See
Vehicle Data Recording and Privacy
.
Let only qualified technicians work
on the airbag systems. Improper
service can mean that an airbag
system will not work properly. See
your dealer for service.
Airbag On-Off Switch
If the instrument panel has the switch
pictured in the following illustration,
the vehicle has an airbag on-off switch
that you can use to manually turn the
front outboard passenger airbag on or
off. No other airbag is affected by the
airbag on-off switch.
This switch should only be turned to
the OFF position if the person in the
front outboard passenger position
belongs to a category indicated in this
section:
Infant. An infant (less than 1 year
old) must travel in the front seat
because:
.
My vehicle has no rear seat;
.
My vehicle has a rear seat too small
to accommodate a rear-facing infant
seat; or
.
The infant has a medical condition
which, according to the infant's
physician, makes it necessary for the
