Lighter Weight Passengers (Including Small Adults)
When a lighter weight passenger, including a small adult, occupies the front passenger
seat, the OCS may reduce the inflation rate of the Passenger Advanced Front Air Bag. This
does not mean that the OCS is working improperly.
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 an adjusted
inflation rate 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 a reduced-power deployment of the Passenger
Advanced Front Air Bag. Increasing the front passenger’s seated weight on the front
passenger seat may result in a full-power deployment of the Passenger Advanced Front Air
Bag. Examples of improper front passenger seating include:
