DRIVER AND PASSENGER
AIRBAGS
WARNINGS
Never place your arm or any objectsover an airbag module. Placing yourarm over a deploying airbag canresult in serious arm fractures or otherinjuries. Objects placed on or over theairbag inflation area may cause thoseobjects to be propelled by the airbag intoyour face and torso causing serious injury.
Airbags can kill or injure a child in achild seat. Never place a rear-facingchild seat in front of an active airbag.If you must use a forward-facing child seatin the front seat, move the seat upon whichthe child seat is installed all the way back.
The driver and front passenger airbags willdeploy during significant frontal and nearfrontal crashes.
The driver and passenger front airbagsystem consists of:
•Driver and passenger airbag modules.
· Crash sensors and monitoringsystem with readiness indicator.See Crash Sensors and AirbagIndicator (page 45).
Passenger Airbag On and OffSwitch (If Equipped)
WARNINGS
Even with Advanced RestraintsSystems, children 12 and undershould be properly restrained in arear seating position. Failure to follow thiscould seriously increase the risk of injury ordeath.
The front passenger airbag is notdesigned to offer protection to anoccupant in the center seatingposition.
An airbag ON and OFF switch maybe installed in this vehicle. Beforedriving, always look at the face of theswitch to be sure the switch is in the properposition in accordance with theseinstructions and warnings. Failure to putthe switch in a proper position can increasethe risk of serious injury or death in a crash.
High-series vehicles (if equipped)
The front passenger airbag on and offswitch has indicators that will illuminate,indicating that the front passenger frontalairbag is either on or off. The indicator lampis located by the radio.

Turning the Passenger Airbag Back On
WARNINGS
The safety belts for the driver andright front passenger seatingpositions have been specificallydesigned to function together with theairbags in certain types of crashes. Whenyou turn off your airbag, you not only losethe protection of the airbag, you also mayreduce the effectiveness of your safety beltsystem, which was designed to work withthe airbag. If you are not a person whomeets the requirements stated in theNational Highway Traffic SafetyAdministration or Transport Canadadeactivation criteria turning off the airbagcan increase the risk of serious injury ordeath in a crash.
If your vehicle has rear seats, alwaystransport children who are 12 andyounger in the rear seat. Always usesafety belts and child restraints properly.Do not place a child in a rear facing infantseat in the front seat unless your vehicle isequipped with an airbag on and off switchand the passenger airbag is turned off. Thisis because the back of the infant seat istoo close to the inflating airbag and therisk of a fatal injury to the infant when theairbag inflates is substantial.
If the pass airbag off light isilluminated when the passengerairbag switch is on and the ignitionis on, have the passenger airbag switchserviced at your authorized dealerimmediately.
The passenger airbag remains off until youturn it back on.
1. Insert the ignition key and turn theswitch to ON.
2. The pass airbag off light will brieflyilluminate when the ignition is turnedto on. This indicates that the passengerairbag is operational.
The passenger side airbag should alwaysbe on (the pass airbag off light should notbe illuminated) unless the passenger is aperson who meets the requirements statedeither in Category 1, 2 or 3 of the NationalHighway Traffic Safety Administration orTransport Canada deactivation criteriawhich follows.
The vast majority of drivers and passengersare much safer with an airbag thanwithout. To do their job and reduce the riskof life threatening injuries, airbags mustopen with great force, and this force canpose a potentially deadly risk in somesituations, particularly when a front seatoccupant is not properly buckled up. Themost effective way to reduce the risk ofunnecessary airbag injuries withoutreducing the overall safety of the vehicleis to make sure all occupants are properlyrestrained in the vehicle, especially in thefront seat. This provides the protection ofsafety belts and permits the airbags toprovide the additional protection they weredesigned to provide. If you choose todeactivate your airbag, you are losing the

Supplementary Restraints SystemE162723

The restraints control module alsomonitors the readiness of the above safetydevices plus the crash and occupantsensors. The readiness of the safetysystem is indicated by a warning indicatorlight in the instrument cluster or by abackup tone if the warning light is notworking. See Instrument Cluster (page82). Routine maintenance of the airbag isnot required.
A difficulty with the system is indicated byone or more of the following:
The readiness light will notilluminate immediately after theignition is turned on.
•The readiness light will either flash orstay lit.
•A series of five beeps will be heard. Thetone pattern will repeat periodicallyuntil the problem, the light or both arerepaired.
If any of these things happen, evenintermittently, have the supplementalrestraint system serviced at an authorizeddealer immediately. Unless serviced, thesystem may not function properly in theevent of a crash.
The fact that the safety belt pretensionersor front airbags did not activate for bothfront seat occupants in a crash does notmean that something is wrong with thesystem. Rather, it means the restraintscontrol module determined the accidentconditions (crash severity, belt usage)were not appropriate to activate thesesafety devices.
•The design of the front airbags is toactivate only in frontal and near-frontalcrashes (not rollovers, side impacts orrear impacts) unless the crash causessufficient frontal deceleration.
•The design of the safety beltpretensioners is to activate in frontal,near-frontal and side crashes, and inrollovers.
•The design of the side airbags is toinflate in certain side impact crashes.Side airbags may activate in othertypes of crashes if the vehicleexperiences sufficient sideways motionor deformation.
•The design of the Safety Canopy is toinflate in certain side impact crashesor rollover events. The Safety Canopymay activate in other types of crashesif the vehicle experiences sufficientsideways motion or deformation, or acertain likelihood of rollover.
AIRBAG DISPOSAL
Contact your authorized dealer as soon aspossible. Airbags must be disposed of byqualified personnel.
