Safety features of your vehicle
Your vehicle is equipped with an
occupant classification system in the
front passenger's seat.
The occupant classification system
is designed to detect the presence of
a properly-seated front passenger
and determine if the passenger's
front air bag should be enabled (may
inflate) or not. The driver's front air
bag is not affected or controlled by
the occupant classification system.
Main components of occupant
classification system
A detection device located withinthe front passenger seat cushion.
Electronic system to determine whether the front passenger air
bag system should be activated or
deactivated.
An indicator light located on the instrument panel which illuminates
the words PASSENGER AIR BAG
"OFF" indicating the front passen-
ger air bag system is deactivated.
The instrument panel air bag indi- cator light is interconnected with
the occupant classification system. If the front passenger seat is occu-
pied by a person that the system
determines to be of adult size, and
he/she sits properly (sitting upright
with the seatback in an upright posi-
tion, centered on the seat cushion
with their seat belt on, legs comfort-
ably extended and their feet on the
floor), the PASSENGER AIR BAG
"OFF" indicator will be turned off and
the front passenger's air bag will be
able to inflate, if necessary, in frontal
crashes.
You will find the PASSENGER AIR
BAG "OFF" indicator on the center
facia panel. This system detects the
conditions 1~4 in the following table
and activates or deactivates the front
passenger air bag based on these
conditions.
Always be sure that you and all vehi-
cle occupants are seated and
restrained properly (sitting upright
with the seat in an upright position,
centered on the seat cushion, with
the person's legs comfortably
extended, feet on the floor, and wear-
ing the safety belt properly) for the
most effective protection by the air
bag and the safety belt. The OCS may not function proper-
ly if the passenger takes actions
which can affect the classification
system. These include:
(1) Failing to sit in an upright posi- tion.
(2) Leaning against the door or center console.
(3) Sitting towards the sides or the front of the seat.
(4) Putting legs on the dashboard or resting them on other loca-
tions which reduce the passen-
ger weight on the front seat.
(5) Improperly wearing the safety belt.
(6) Reclining the seat back.
(7) Wearing a thick cloth like ski wear or hip protection wear.
(8) Put on the seat an additional thick cushion.

tem sits in the front passenger seat,
