The ORC also monitors the readiness of the electronic
parts of the system whenever the ignition switch is in
the START or ON positions. These include all of the
items listed above except the knee bolster, the instru-
ment panel, and the steering wheel and column. If the
key is in the LOCK position, in the ACC position, or
not in the ignition, the airbags are not on and will not
inflate.
Also, the ORC turns on the “Airbag Warning
Light” and “PAD Indicator Light” for 6 to 8
seconds for a self-check when the ignition is
first turned on. After the self-check, the “Air-
bag Warning Light” will turn off. The “PAD Indicator
Light” will function normally (Refer to
⬙
Passenger
Airbag Disable (PAD) Indicator Light
⬙
in this section).
If the ORC detects a malfunction in any part of the
system, it turns on the “Airbag Warning Light” either
momentarily or continuously. A single chime will
sound if the light comes on again after initial start up.
WARNING!
Ignoring the “Airbag Warning Light” in your instru-
ment panel could mean you won’t have the airbags
to protect you in a collision. If the light does not
come on, stays on after you start the vehicle, or if it
comes on as you drive, have the airbag system
checked right away.

The
Occupant Classification System (OCS)
is part of
a Federally regulated safety system required for this
vehicle. It is designed to turn off the front passenger
airbag in the unlikely event that a rear-facing infant
seat is in the front passenger seat.
NOTE:
Children 12 years and under should always ride
buckled up in a rear seat in an appropriate child restraint.
