•When the front passenger sensingsystem enables the front passengerfrontal airbag, the passenger airbagstatus indicator illuminates the onlamp.
If a person of adult size is sitting in the frontpassenger seat, but the passenger airbagstatus indicator off lamp is illuminated, itis possible that the person is not sittingproperly in the seat. If this happens:
•Switch your vehicle off and ask theperson to place the seat backrest in anupright position.
•Have the person sit upright in the seat,centered on the seat cushion, with theperson's legs comfortably extended.
•Restart your vehicle and have theperson remain in this position for abouttwo minutes. This allows the systemto detect that person and enable thepassenger frontal airbag.
•If the indicator off lamp remainsilluminated even after this, you shouldadvise the person to ride in the rearseat.
After all occupants have adjusted theirseats and put on seatbelts, it is veryimportant that they continue to sit upright,leaning against the seat backrest, andcentered on the seat cushion, with theirfeet comfortably extended on the floor.
Sitting improperly can increase the chanceof injury in a crash event. For example, ifan occupant slouches, lies down, turnssideways, sits forward, leans forward orsideways, or puts one or both feet up, thechance of injury during a crash greatlyincreases.
If you think that the state of the passengerairbag status indicator lamp is incorrect,check for the following:
•Objects lodged underneath the seat.
•Objects between the seat cushion andthe center console.
•Objects hanging off the seat backrest.
•Objects stowed in the seat backrestmap pocket.
•Objects placed on the occupant's lap.
•Cargo interference with the seat
•Other passengers pushing or pulling onthe seat.
•Rear passenger feet and knees restingor pushing on the seat.
The listed conditions could cause theweight of a properly seated occupant tobe incorrectly interpreted by the frontpassenger sensing system. The person inthe front passenger seat could appearheavier or lighter due to the conditionslisted.
Make sure the front passengersensing system is operatingproperly. See Crash Sensorsand Airbag Indicator (page 75).
If the airbag readiness light is on, do thefollowing:
•Pull your vehicle over.
•Switch your vehicle off.
•Check for any objects lodgedunderneath the front passenger seator cargo interfering with the seat.
•Remove the obstruction if found.
•Restart your vehicle.
•Wait at least two minutes and verifythat the airbag readiness light in theinstrument cluster is no longerilluminated.
•If the airbag readiness light in theinstrument cluster remains illuminated,there may be a problem due to thefront passenger sensing system.
Do not attempt to repair or service thesystem. Take your vehicle in for serviceimmediately.

CRASH SENSORS AND
AIRBAG INDICATOR
WARNING: Modifying or addingequipment to the front of your vehiclecould affect the performance of theairbag system, increasing the risk ofinjury. This includes the hood, bumpersystem, frame, front body structure, towhooks, hood pins, push bar andsnowplows.
Your vehicle is equipped with multiplecrash and occupant sensors. These sensorsprovide information to the restraintscontrol module which activates thefollowing:
•Front and rear seatbelt pretensioners.
•Driver airbag.
•Passenger airbag.
•Seat mounted side airbags.
•Safety Canopy.
Based on the type of crash, the restraintscontrol module which, in the event of acrash, activates the following:
The restraints control module alsomonitors the readiness of the above safetydevices plus the crash and occupantsensors. The readiness of the safetysystem is indicated by a warning indicatorin the instrument cluster or by a backuptone if the warning indicator is not working.Routine maintenance of the airbag is notrequired.
A difficulty with the system is indicated byone or more of the following:
The readiness light will notilluminate immediately after youswitch the ignition on.
•The readiness light either flashes orstays on.
•You hear a series of five tones. Thetone pattern repeats periodically untilthe problem, the light or both arerepaired.
If any of these things happen, evenintermittently, have the supplementalrestraint system serviced immediately.Unless serviced, the system may notfunction properly in the event of a crash.
The fact the seatbelt pretensioners or frontairbags did not activate for both front seatoccupants in a crash does not mean thatsomething is wrong with the system.Rather, it means the restraints controlmodule determined the accidentconditions (crash severity, seatbelt usage)were not appropriate to activate thesesafety devices.
•The front airbags activate only infrontal and near-frontal crashes. Frontairbags may activate in rollovers, sideimpacts or rear impacts if the crashcauses sufficient frontal deceleration.
•The seatbelt pretensioners activate infrontal, near-frontal and side crashes,and in rollovers.
•The side airbags inflate in certain sideimpact crashes or rollover events. Sideairbags may activate in other types ofcrashes if the vehicle experiencessufficient sideways motion ordeformation.
•The Safety Canopy inflates in certainside impact crashes or rollover events.The Safety Canopy may activate inother types of crashes if the vehicleexperiences sufficient sideways motionor deformation, or a certain likelihoodof rollover.
