Important Facts About Your Airbags
Always wear your seat belt properly, and sit upright and as far back from the 
steering wheel as possible while allowing full control of the vehicle. A front 
passenger should move their seat as far back from the dashboard as possible. 
Do not place hard or sharp objects between yourself and a front airbag. Carrying
hard or sharp objects on your lap, or driving with a pipe or other sharp object in 
your mouth, can result in injuries if your front airbag inflates.
Do not attach or place objects on the front airbag covers. Objects on the covers 
marked SRS AIRBAG could interfere with the proper operation of the airbags or be 
propelled inside the vehicle and hurt someone if the airbags inflate.
Do not attach accessories on or near the side airbags. They can interfere with the
proper operation of the airbags, or hurt someone if an airbag inflates.
Do not attach any objects to the side windows or roof pillars. They can interfere
with the proper operation of the side curtain airbags.
Do not cover or replace the front seat-back covers. This can prevent your side
airbags from properly deploying during a side impact.
Airbag System Indicators
If a problem occurs in the airbag system, the SRS indicator comes on and a 
message appears on the multi-information display*.
SRS (Supplemental Restraint System) indicator
If the indicator comes on at any other time besides 
vehicle start-up, or does not come on at all, have the
system checked by a dealer as soon as possible. If 
you don’t, your airbags and seat belt tensioners may 
not work properly when they are needed.Passenger airbag off indicator
The indicator comes on to alert you that the front
passenger’s front airbag has been turned off. This 
occurs when the front passenger’s weight sensors
detect 65 lbs (29 kg) or less, the weight of an infant 
or small child, on the seat.
Infants and small children should always ride 
properly restrained in a back seat.
Objects placed on the seat can also cause the indicator to come on.
If the front passenger‘s seat is empty, the passenger’s front airbag will not deploy 
and the indicator will not come on.
If the indicator comes on with no occupant or objects in the front passenger’s 
seat, something may be interfering with the weight sensors, such as: 
• An object hanging on the seat or in the seat-back pocket.
• A child seat or other object pressing against the rear of the seat-back.
• A rear passenger pushing or pulling on the back of the front passenger’s seat.
• The front seat or seat-back is forced against an object on the seat or floor 
behind it.
• An object placed under the front passenger’s seat.
If none of these conditions exist, have your vehicle checked by a dealer as soon 
as possible.
The passenger airbag off indicator may go on and off repeatedly if the total weight 
on the seat is near the airbag cutoff threshold.
An open glove box can cause serious injury to your passenger in a crash, 
even if the passenger is wearing the seat belt.
Always keep the glove box closed while driving.
WARNING
*
Ignoring the SRS indicator can result in serious injury or death if the airbag 
systems or tensioners do not work properly.
Have your vehicle checked by a dealer as soon as possible if the SRS 
indicator alerts you to a possible problem.
