Children must always be properlyrestrained. Accident statistics suggest thatchildren are safer when properly restrainedin the rear seating positions than in thefront seating position. Failure to followthese instructions may increase the risk ofinjury in a crash.
FRONT PASSENGER SENSING
SYSTEM
WHAT IS THE FRONT PASSENGERSENSING SYSTEM
This system detects a properly seatedoccupant and determines if the frontpassenger airbag should be enabled.
HOW DOES THE FRONTPASSENGER SENSING SYSTEMWORK
The system uses a passenger airbag statusindicator which illuminates indicating thatthe front passenger frontal airbag is eitherenabled or disabled.
Note:When you first switch the ignition on,the passenger airbag status indicator offand on lamps illuminate for a short periodto confirm they are functional.
The indicator lamps are on the overheadconsole.
The front passenger sensing system isdesigned to disable the front passengerfrontal airbag under these conditions:
•The front passenger seat isunoccupied.
•The system determines an infant ispresent in a child restraint.
•A passenger takes their weight off ofthe seat for a period of time.
•If there is a problem with the airbagsystem or the passenger sensingsystem.
Note:Even with this technology, parentsare strongly encouraged to always properlyrestrain children in the rear seat.
•When the front passenger sensingsystem disables the front passengerfrontal airbag, the passenger airbagstatus indicator illuminates the offlamp.
•If you have installed the child restraintand the passenger airbag statusindicator illuminates the on lamp,switch your vehicle off, remove thechild restraint from your vehicle andreinstall the restraint following thechild restraint manufacturer'sinstructions.
The front passenger sensing system workswith sensors that are part of the frontpassenger seat and seatbelt. The sensorsare designed to detect the presence of aproperly seated occupant and determineif the front passenger frontal airbag shouldbe enabled.
