Main components of occupant
classification system
A detection device located underthe front passenger's seat cushion.
Electronic system to determine whether to activate the front pas-
senger's air bag (both front and
side) or not.
A warning light on the instrument panel, which displays the message
of "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF" to
indicate that the front passenger's
air bag system is deactivated.
The air bag indicator on the instru- ment panel is interconnected with
the occupant classification system.
The OCS is designed to detect the
presence of a properly-seated front
passenger and determine if the pas-
senger's front air bag should be
enabled (may inflate) or not.
The purpose is to help reduce the
risk of injury or death from an inflat-
ing air bag to certain front passenger
seat occupants, such as children, by
requiring the air bag to be automati-
cally turned OFF.
For example, if a child restraint of the
type specified in the regulations is on
the seat, the occupant classification
sensor can detect it and cause the
air bag to turn OFF.
Front passenger seat adult occupants
who are properly seated and wearing
the seat belt properly, should not
cause the passenger air bag to be
automatically turned OFF. For small
adults it may be turned OFF, however,
if the occupant does not sit in the seat
properly (for example, by not sitting
upright, by sitting on the edge of the
seat, or by otherwise being out of
position), this could cause the sensor
to turn the air bag OFF. Always make sure that you and all
occupants are properly seated and
fastened for the most effective pro-
tection from air bags and the seat
belts.
The OCS may not properly func-
tion, when an occupant takes an
action, which may affect the classi-
fication system. These include:
(1) Failing to sit in an upright posi- tion.
(2) Leaning against the door or
center console.
(3) Sitting towards the front or the sides.
(4) Putting their legs on the dash- board or other areas, reducing
the occupant's weight on the
front seat.
(5) Improperly fastening the seat belt.
(6) Reclining the seat back.

Safety system of your vehicle02
Even though your vehicle isequipped with the occupant
classification system, never
install a child restraint system
in the front passenger's seat. A
deploying air bag may forcefully
strike a child, resulting in seri-
ous injury or death. Any child
age 12 and under should ride in
a rear seat. Children too big for
a child restraint should use the
available lap/shoulder belts. No
matter what type of a crash
occurs, children of all ages are
safer, when restrained in a rear
seat.
When the "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF" indicator illumi-
nates with an adult's occupa-
tion in the front passenger's
seat, he/she sits properly (sit-
ting in an upright position,
and sitting on the center of
the seat cushion with their
seat belt fastened, legs com-
fortably extended and their
feet on the floor), have that
person sit in a rear seat.
Do not modify or replace the front passenger's seat. Do not
place or attach any items, such
as a blanket or seat heater, on
the front passenger's seat.
This may adversely affect the
occupant classification sys-
tem.
When the weight load is changed in the front passen-
ger's seat, the PASSENGER
"AIR BAG OFF" indicator may
flash ON and OFF for a few sec-
onds, enabling and disabling
the front passenger's air bag.
(Continued)
(Continued)
Do not sit over a sharp object,such as a tool, in the front
passenger's seat. This may
adversely affect the occupant
classification system.
Do not use an accessory seat cover over the front passen-
ger's seat.
Accident statistics show that children are safer, when
restrained in a rear than in the
front. It is recommended that
all child restraints be secured
in a rear seat, including a rear-
facing infant seat, a forward-
facing child seat and a boost-
er seat
Air bags can be used only once – have an authorized
EQUUS dealer replace the air
bag immediately after a
deployment.
A tiny adult's incorrect seat- ing (i.e. excessively reclining,
leaning toward the door or the
center console, or slanting
forward) may cause a condi-
tion where the advanced front
passenger's air bag system
senses less weight than occu-
pant's the actual weight (when
properly sitting in an upright
position, and sitting on the
center of the seat cushion
with their seat belt fastened,
legs comfortably extended
and their feet on the floor).
This condition may result in
misclassification of an occu-
pant and illumination of the
"PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF"
indicator.WARNING
Information
• Must read the SRS information onthe sun visor.
• The combination of the advanced air bags and pre-tensioner seat belts
provides more enhanced protection
in a frontal crash. Front air bags are
not designed to inflate in a minor
collision in which enough protection
can be provided by the pre-tension-
er seat belt.

Safety system of your vehicle
Before modifying your vehicle
due to a disability, please con-
tact the EQUUS Customer
Connect Center at 1-877-378-
8727.
WARNING
Always use seat belts and child
restraints – every trip, every
time, everyone! Air bags
instantly inflate with consider-
able force. Seat belts help occu-
pants keep the proper position
for their maximum benefits of
an air bag. Even with advanced
air bags, improperly belted and
unbelted occupants may be
severely injured when an air
bag inflates. Always follow the
precautions about seat belts, air
bags and occupants' safety in
this manual. (Continued)
(Continued)
To reduce the possibilities of
serious or fatal injury and
receive the maximum safety
benefit from your restraint sys-
tem:
Never place a child in anychild restraint or booster seat
in the front seat.
ABC – Always Buckle Children in a rear seat. It is the
safest place for children of all
ages.
Front and side air bags may injure an occupant, who is
improperly positioned in the
front seats.
Move your seat as far back as possible from the front air
bags, while still maintaining
control of the vehicle.
You and occupants should never sit or lean unnecessari-
ly close to the air bags.
Improperly positioned driver
and occupants may be
severely injured by inflating
air bags.
Never lean against the door or the center console – always
sit in an upright position.
Do not allow an adult occu- pant to ride in the front seat,
when the "PASSENGER AIR
BAG OFF" indicator illumi-
nates. An air bag will not
deploy in the event of a mod-
erate or severe frontal crash.
