Medical Condition.A passenger has a
medical condition which, according to his or
her physician:
•
causes the passenger air bag to pose a special risk
for the passenger; and
•makes the potential harm from the passenger air
bag in a crash greater than the potential harm
from turning off the air bag and allowing the
passenger, even if belted, to hit the dashboard or
windshield in a crash.
{CAUTION:
If the passenger’s air bag is turned off for a
person who isn’t in a risk group identi ed by
the national government, that person won’t
have the extra protection of an air bag. In a
crash, the air bag wouldn’t be able to in ate
and help protect the person sitting there. Don’t
turn off the passenger’s air bag unless the
person sitting there is in a risk group.To turn off the passenger’s air bag, insert your ignition
key into the switch, push in, and move the switch to
the off position.
