Safety and Security

Occupant safety

Warning!

If the

indicator lamp illumi-

nates when an adult or someone larger than

a small individual is in the front passenger

seat, have the front passenger reposition

himself or herself in the seat until the

indicator lamp goes out, or

check whether objects are caught under or

around the seat.

More information about air bag display mes-

sages (

컄

page 423).

In the event of a collision, the air bag control

unit will not allow front passenger front air

bag deployment when the OCS classified

the front passenger seat occupant as being

up to or less than the weight of a typical

12-month-old child in a standard child re-

straint or if the front passenger seat is

sensed as being empty.

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

indicator lamp

will illuminate when the engine is started

and remain 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

indicator lamp will illumi-

nate when the engine is started and remain

illuminated, indicating that the front passen-

ger 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

indicator lamp will illu-

minate for approximately 6 seconds when

the engine is started and then, depending on

occupant weight sensor readings from the

seat, remain illuminated or go out. With the

indicator lamp illuminated,

the front passenger front air bag is deacti-

vated. With the

indicator

lamp out, the front passenger front air bag is

activated.

ger seat occupant is classified as an adult or

someone larger than a small individual, the
