272SAFETY
Lighter Weight Passengers (Including Small Adults)
When a lighter weight passenger, including a small adult,
occupies the passenger seat, the Passenger Advanced
Front Air Bag may be deactivated. Therefore, the
Passenger Advanced Front Air Bag may or may not be
activated for a lighter weight passenger, including a small
adult (depending on size) who is seated in the passenger
seat. This does not mean that the OCS is working
improperly.
The driver and passenger must always use the PAD
Indicator Light as a determination of whether the
Passenger Advanced Front Air Bag is activated or
deactivated. If the PAD Indicator Light is illuminated with
the words “PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF” when an adult is in
the front passenger seat, have the passenger reposition
his or her body in the seat until the PAD Indicator Light
goes out.
If the PAD Indicator Light is illuminated with the words
“PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF” the Passenger Advanced
Front Air Bag will not inflate in the event of a collision.
Do Not Decrease OR Increase The Front Passenger’s
Seated Weight On The Front Passenger Seat
The front passenger’s seated weight must be properly
positioned on the front passenger seat. Failure to do so
may result in serious injury or death. The OCS determines
the most probable classification of the occupant that it
detects. The OCS will detect the front passenger’s
decreased or increased seated weight, which may result in
deactivation or activation of the Passenger Advanced
Front Air Bag in a collision. This does not mean that the
OCS is working improperly. Decreasing the front
passenger’s seated weight on the front passenger seat
may result in deactivation of the Passenger Advanced Front Air Bag causing serious injury or death. Increasing
the front passenger’s seated weight on the front
passenger seat may result in activation of the Passenger
Advanced Front Air Bag. Examples of improper front
passenger seating include:

The front passenger’s weight is transferred to another
part of the vehicle (like the door, arm rest or instrument
panel).
 The front passenger leans forward, sideways, or turns
to face the rear of the vehicle.
 The front passenger’s seatback is not in the full upright
position.
 The front passenger carries or holds an object while
seated (e.g., backpack, box, etc.).
 Objects are lodged under the front passenger seat.
 Objects are lodged between the front passenger seat
and center console.
 Accessories that may change the seated weight on the
front passenger seat are attached to the front
passenger seat.
 Anything that may decrease or increase the front
passenger’s seated weight.
The OCS determines the front passenger’s most probable
classification. If an occupant in the front passenger seat is
seated improperly, the occupant may provide an output
signal to the OCS that is different from the occupant’s
properly seated weight input, for example:
