Main components of the Occupant 
Classification System
•	A detection device located within the 
front passenger seat cushion.
•	 Electronic system to determine 
whether the passenger air bag 
systems should be activated or 
deactivated.
•	 An indicator light located on the 
instrument panel which illuminates 
the words “PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF” 
indicating the front passenger air bag 
system is deactivated.
•	 The instrument panel air bag indicator 
light is interconnected with the OCS.
The OCS is designed to help 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 purpose is to help reduce the risk 
of injury or death from an inflating air 
bag to certain front passenger seat 
occupants, such as children, by requiring 
the air bag to be automatically 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 smaller adults it may turn 
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. You will find the “PASSENGER AIR BAG 
OFF” indicator on the overhead console 
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 vehicle 
occupants are seated properly and 
wearing the seat belt properly for the 
most effective protection by the air bag 
and the seat belt.
The OCS may not function properly if the 
passenger takes actions which can affect 
the classification system. These include:
•	
Failing to sit in an upright position.
•	 Leaning against the door or center 
console.
•	 Sitting towards the sides of the front 
of the seat.
•	 Putting their legs on the dashboard or 
resting them on other locations which 
reduce the passenger weight on the 
front seat.
•	 Wearing the seat belt improperly.
•	 Reclining the seatback.
•	 Wearing thick clothes like ski wear or 
hip protection wear.
•	 Putting an additional thick cushion on 
the seat.
•	 Putting electrical devices (e.g. 
notebook, satellite radio) on the seat 
with inverter charging.

*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 recognize him/her as a child depending on his/her 
physique and posture.
*2 : Do not allow children to ride in the front passenger seat. When a larger child who has 
outgrown a child restraint system sits in the front passenger seat, the system may 
recognize him/her as an adult depending upon his/her physique or sitting position.
*3 : Never install a child restraint system on the front passenger seat.
*4 : The PASSENGER AIR BAG “OFF” indicator may turn on or off when a child above 12 
months to 12 years old (with or without child restraint system) sits in the front passenger 
seat. This is a normal condition.

Air bag inflation conditions
OTM030014
Front air bags
Front air bags are designed to inflate 
in a frontal collision depending on the 
severity of impact of the front collision.
OTM030013
OTM030033
Side and curtain air bags
Side and curtain air bags are designed 
to inflate when an impact is detected 
by side collision sensors depending on 
the severity, speed or angles of impact 
resulting from a side impact collision.
Although the driver’s and front 
passenger’s air bags are designed to 
inflate in frontal collisions, they also may 
inflate in other types of collisions if the 
front impact sensors detect a sufficient 
impact. Side and curtain air bags are 
designed to inflate in side impact 
collisions, but they may inflate in other 
collisions if the side impact sensors 
detect a sufficient impact.
Also, the side and curtain air bags are 
designed to inflate when a rollover 
is detected by a rollover sensor. (if 
equipped with rollover sensor)
If the vehicle chassis is impacted by 
bumps or objects on unimproved roads, 
the air bags may deploy. Drive carefully 
on unimproved roads or on surfaces not 
designed for vehicle traffic to prevent 
unintended air bag deployment.

Air bag non-inflation conditions
OTM030015
In certain low-speed collisions the air 
bags may not deploy. The air bags are 
designed not to deploy in such cases 
because they may not provide benefits 
beyond the protection of the seat belts.
OTM030016
Front air bags are not designed to inflate 
in rear collisions, because occupants 
are moved backward by the force of the 
impact. In this case, inflated air bags 
would not provide any additional benefit.
OTM030017
Front air bags may not inflate in side 
impact collisions, because occupants 
move in the direction of the collision, 
and thus in side impacts, front air bag 
deployment would not provide additional 
occupant protection.
However, side and curtain air bags 
and front center air bag may inflate 
depending on the severity of impact.
OTM030034
In an angled collision, the force of impact 
may direct the occupants in a direction 
where the air bags would not be able to 
provide any additional benefit, and thus 
the sensors may not deploy any air bags.

Inside rearview mirror
Before driving your vehicle, check to 
see that your inside rearview mirror is 
properly positioned. Adjust the rearview 
mirror so that the view through the rear 
window is properly centered.
 WARNING
Make sure your line of sight is not 
obstructed. Do not place objects in the 
rear seat, cargo area, or behind the rear 
headrests which could interfere with 
your vision through the rear window.
 WARNING
To prevent serious injury during an 
accident or deployment of the air bag, 
do not modify the rearview mirror and 
do not install a wide mirror.
 WARNING
NEVER adjust the mirror while driving. 
This may cause loss of vehicle control 
resulting in an accident.
NOTICE
When cleaning the mirror, use a paper 
towel or similar material dampened 
with glass cleaner. Do not spray glass 
cleaner directly on the mirror as this 
may cause the liquid cleaner to enter 
the mirror housing.
Electric Chromic Mirror (ECM)  
(if equipped)
OTM050019[A] : Indicator
Some vehicles come equipped with an 
electrochromic mirror that helps control 
glare while driving at night or under low 
light driving conditions.
When the engine is running, the glare is 
automatically controlled by the sensor 
mounted in the rearview mirror. The 
sensor detects the light level around the 
vehicle, and automatically adjusts to 
control the headlamp glare from vehicles 
behind you.
Whenever the the gear is shifted to R 
(Reverse), the mirror will automatically 
go to the brightest setting in order to 
improve the driver’s view behind the 
vehicle.
