When the front-passenger’s seat is occupied and the passenger meets the
conditions outlined in the Owner’s Manual, the will not illuminate to indicate that
the front-passenger air bag is operational.
*When the system detects that the front-passenger’s seat is unoccupied, the
passenger air bag status light will not illuminate even though the front-passenger
