uuAirbags uFront Airbags (SRS)
Safe Driving
The front passenger’s ad vanced airbag system
has weight sensors. The sensors are used for
occupant classification to activate or
deactivate the front passenger’s airbag.
For adult size occupant s, the system will
automatically activate the front passenger’s
airbag. If a small adult sits in the front
passenger seat and the system does not
recognize him/her as an adult, see
2 Passenger Front Airbag Off Indicator P. 61
We advise against allowing a child age 12 or
under to ride in the front passenger’s seat.
However, if you do allow a small child or
infant to ride in the front passenger’s seat, the
system is designed to automatically deactivate
the front passenger’s airbag. Do not let a
small child or infant ride in the front
passenger’s seat if the airbag does not
automatically deactivate.
1 Advanced Airbags
For the advanced front airbags to work properly,
confirm that:
•The occupant is sitting in an upright position,
wearing the seat belt prope rly and the seat back is
not excessively reclined.
•The occupant is not leaning against the door or

indicator comes on
The indicator comes on to alert you that the
front passenger’s airbag has been turned off.
