2003 GMC SIERRA DENALI run flat

When either the passenger sensing system and/or
the AIR BAG
OFF switch has turned off the
right front passenger’s frontal air bag, the
off
indicator in the passenger air bag status indicator
on the rearview mirror will light and stay lit
when
y-” turn the ignition to RUN or START.
2. Put the restraint on the seat.
3. Pick up the latch plate, and run the lap and shoulder
portions
of the vehicle’s safety belt through or
around the restraint. The child restraint instructions
will show you how.
If the air bag readiness light
in the instrument
panel cluster ever comes
on when you have
turned
off the air bag, it means that something
may be wrong with the air bag system. The
right front passenger’s air bag could inflate
even though the switch
is off. If this ever
happens, have the vehicle serviced promptly.
Until
you have the vehicle serviced, don’t let
anyone whom the national government has identified as a member of a passenger air bag
risk group sit in the right front passenger’s
position (for example, don’t secure a
rear-facing child restraint
in your vehicle). See
”Air Bag
Off Switch” in the Index. 4. Buckle the belt. Make sure the release button is
positioned
so you would be able to unbuckle the
safety belt quickly
if you ever had to.

~~ ~~ Passenger
Air
Bag Status
Indicator
- Canada
When the ignition key is turned to RUN or START, the
passenger air bag status indicator will light ON and
OFF, or the symbol for on and off, for several seconds
as a system check. Then, after several more seconds,
the status indicator will light either ON or OFF, or either
the on or
off symbol to let you know the status of the
right front passenger’s frontal air bag.
If the word ON or the on symbol is lit on the passenger
air bag status indicator, it means that the right front
passenger’s frontal air bag is enabled (may inflate). If the
ON indicator comes on when you have a
rear-facing child restraint installed
in the right
front passenger’s seat, it means that the
passenger sensing system has not turned
off
the passenger’s frontal air bag. A child in a
rear-facing child restraint can be seriously
injured or killed if the right front passenger’s air
bag inflates. This is because the back of the
rear-facing child restraint would be very close
to the inflating air bag. Don’t use a rear-facing
child restraint in the right front passenger’s seat unless the air bag has been turned
off.
If the word OFF or the off symbol is lit on the passenger
air bag status indicator, it means that the passenger
sensing system or the air bag
off switch has turned off the
right front passenger’s air bag. See
Passenger Sensing
System on page
1-68 or Air Bag Off Switch on page 1-64
for more on this, including important safety information.
