There is a malfunction in the system *1
: The system judges a person of adult size as an adult. When a smaller adult sits in the
front passenger seat, the system may not re cognize him/her as an adult depending on
his/her physique and posture. *2
: In the event the front passenger is wearing a seat belt *3
: In the event the front passenger does not wear a seat belt *4
: For some children, child in se at, child in booster seat or ch ild in convertible seat, the sys-
tem may not recognize him/her as a child. Factors which may affect this can be the phy-
sique or posture. *5
: Never install a rear-facing child restraint system on th e front passenger seat. A for-
ward-facing child restraint system should only be installed on the front passenger seat
when it is unavoidable. (  P.45)*6
: In case the indicator light is not illuminated, consult this manual on how to install the child
restraint system properly. (  P.46)Indicator/warning light “AIR BAG ON” and “AIR BAG OFF”
