Safety and Security
Occupant safety
When the OCS senses that the front passen-
ger seat occupant is classified as being up
to or less than the weight of a typical
12-month-old child in a standard child re-
straint, the
75
indicator lamp will
illuminate when the engine is started and re-
main illuminated, indicating that the front
passenger front air bag is deactivated.
When the OCS senses that the front passen-
ger seat is classified as being empty, the
75
indicator lamp will illuminate
when the engine is started and remain illu-
minated, indicating that the front passenger
front air bag is deactivated.
When the OCS senses that the front passen-
ger seat occupant is classified as being
heavier than the weight of a typical
12-month-old child seated in a standard
child restraint or as being a small individual
(such as a young teenager or a small adult),
the
75
indicator lamp will illumi-
nate for approximately 6 seconds when the
engine is started and then, depending on oc-
cupant weight sensor readings from the
seat, remain illuminated or go out. With the
75
indicator lamp illuminated, the
front passenger front air bag is deactivated.
With the
75
indicator lamp out,
the front passenger front air bag is activat-
ed.
When the OCS senses that the front passen-
ger seat occupant is classified as an adult or
someone larger than a small individual, the
75
indicator lamp will illuminate
for approximately 6 seconds when the en-
gine is started and then go out, indicating
that the front passenger front air bag is acti-
vated.
If the
75
indicator lamp is illumi-
nated, the front passenger front air bag is
deactivated and will not be deployed.
If the
75
indicator lamp is not
illuminated, the front passenger front air
bag is activated and will be deployed:
앫
in the event of certain frontal impacts
앫
if impact exceeds a preset deployment
threshold
앫
independently of the side impact
air bags.
If the front passenger front air bag is
deployed, the rate of inflation will be
influenced by:
앫
the rate of relevant vehicle deceleration
as assessed by the air bag control unit
앫
front passenger’s weight category as
identified by the Occupant Classification
System (OCS).
