Safe Driving■When the passenger front airbag off
indicator comes on
The indicator comes on to alert you that the
passenger’s front airbag has been turned off.
This occurs when the weight sensors detect
about 65 lbs (29 kg) or less, the weight of an
infant or small child, on the seat.
Children age 12 or under should always ride properly restrained in a back seat.
2 Child Safety P. 65
If the front passenger’s seat is empty, the indicator will come on and, in the event of
a crash, the front passenger’s airbag will not deploy. The front passenger’s knee
airbag will not deploy either.

Climate Control System
Using Automatic Climate Control

fresh air mode in normal situations.
1 Using Automatic Climate Control
If any buttons are presse d while using the climate
control system in auto, the function of the button
that was pressed wi ll take priority.
