In order for the OCS to operate as designed, it
is important for the front passenger to be
seated properly and properly wearing the seat
belt. Properly seated passengers are:
• Sitting upright
• Facing forward
• Sitting in the center of the seat with their
feet comfortably on or near the floor
• Sitting with their back against the seatback
and the seatback in an upright position
Lighter Weight Passengers (Including Small
Adults)
When a lighter weight passenger, including a
small adult, occupies the front passenger
seat, the OCS may reduce the inflation rate of
the Passenger Advanced Front Air Bag. This
does not mean that the OCS is working im-
properly.
Do not decrease OR increase the front passen-
ger’s seated weight on the front passenger seat
The front passenger’s seated weight must be
properly positioned on the front passenger
seat. Failure to do so may result in serious
injury or death. The OCS determines the most
probable classification of the occupant that it
detects. The OCS will detect the front pas-
senger’s decreased or increased seated
weight, which may result in an adjusted in-
flation rate of the Passenger Advanced Front
Air Bag in a collision. This does not mean that
the OCS is working improperly. Decreasing
the front passenger’s seated weight on the
front passenger seat may result in a reduced-
power deployment of the Passenger Ad-
vanced Front Air Bag. Increasing the front
passenger’s seated weight on the front pas-
senger seat may result in a full-power deploy-
ment of the Passenger Advanced Front Air
Bag.
Examples of improper front passenger seat-
ing include:
• The front passenger’s weight is transferred
to another part of the vehicle (like the door,
arm rest or instrument panel).
• The front passenger leans forward, side-
ways, or turns to face the rear of the ve-
hicle.
• The front passenger’s seatback is not in the
full upright position.
• The front passenger carries or holds an ob-
ject while seated (e.g., backpack, box, etc.).
• Objects are lodged under the front passen-
ger seat.
• Objects are lodged between the front pas-
senger seat and center console.
• Accessories that may change the seated
weight on the front passenger seat are at-
tached to the front passenger seat.
