WARNING: If the air bag has deployed, the air bag will not

function again and must be replaced immediately. If the air

bag is not replaced, the unrepaired area will increase the risk of injury

in a collision.

Front passenger sensing system

The front passenger sensing system is designed to meet the regulatory

requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) 208

and is designed to disable (will not inflate) the front passenger’s frontal

airbag under certain conditions.

The front passenger sensing system works with sensors that are part of

the front passenger’s seat and safety belt. The sensors are designed to

detect the presence of a properly seated occupant and determine if the

front passenger’s frontal airbag should be enabled (may inflate) or

disabled (will not inflate).

The front passenger sensing system will disable (will not inflate) the

front passenger’s frontal airbag if:

• the front passenger seat is unoccupied, or has small/medium objects in

the front seat,

• the system determines that an infant is present in a rear-facing infant

seat that is installed according to the manufacturer’s instructions,

• the system determines that a small child is present in a forward-facing

child restraint that is installed according to the manufacturer’s

instructions,

• the system determines that a small child is present in a booster seat,

• a front passenger takes his/her weight off of the seat for a period of

time,

• a child or a small person occupies the front passenger seat.

Note: When the passenger airbag off light is illuminated, the passenger

(seat mounted) side airbag may be disabled to avoid the risk of airbag

deployment injuries.

The front passenger sensing system

uses a ⬙passenger airbag off⬙ or

⬙pass airbag off⬙ indicator which will

illuminate and stay lit to remind you

that the front passenger frontal airbag is disabled. The indicator lamp is

located at the top of the instrument panel center stack area above the

radio and next to the hazard warning indicator.
