After you follow this procedure for the
driver’s air bag, then disconnect the
right-front passenger’s air bag like this:
Lower the passenger side hush panel
under the glove box.
Disconnect the yellow connector at
the base of
the instrument panel.
When the work is complete, if the air
bag system was disconnected, be sure
to
reattach everything and replace the fuse
before turning the ignition on. When
you turn
the ignition key on, be sure you
see the inflatable restraint light on
the
instrument panel. If you don’t see this
light flash and then go out as usual, have
your air bag system repaired.

Safety Belt Use During
Pregnancy
Safety belts work for everyone,
including pregnant women. Like all
occupants, they-are more likely to be seriously injured if they don’t wear
safety belts.
A pregnant woman should
wear a lap-shoulder belt, and the lap
portion should be
worn as low as
possible throughout the pregnancy.
The best way to protect the fetus is to
protect the mother. When a safety belt is
worn properly, it’s more likely that
the
fetus won’t be hurt in a crash. For
pregnant women, as for anyone, the key
to making safety belts effective is
wearing them properly.
Right Front Passenger Position
The right-front passenger’s safety belt
works the same way as the driver’s
safety belt. See the
Index under Driver
Position.
When the lap portion of the belt is
pulled out all the way, it will lock. If it
does, let it go back all the way and start
again.
If your vehicle has a center passenger
position, be sure to use the correct
buckle when buckling your lap-shoulder
belt. If you find that the latch plate will
not go fully into the buckle, see if you
are using the buckle for the center
passenger position.
