This switch should only be turned to AIR BAG OFF if
the person in the right front passenger's position is a
member of a passenger risk group identified by the
national government as follows:
Infant. An infant (less than 1 year old) must ride in the
front seat because:
my vehicle has no rear seat;
my vehicle has a rear seat too small to accommodate
a rear
-facing infant seat; or
the infant has a medical condition which, according
to the infant's physician, makes it necessary for the
infant to ride in the front seat so that the driver can
constantly monitor the child's condition.
Child age 1 to 12.
A child age 1 to 12 must ride in the
front seat because:
my vehicle has no rear seat;
although children ages 1 to 12 ride in the rear
seat(s) whenever possible, children ages 1 to 12
sometimes must ride in the front because no space is
available in the rear seat(s) of my vehicle; or
the child has a medical condition which, according
to the child's physician, makes it necessary for the
child to ride in the front seat so that the driver can
constantly monitor the child's condition.Medical Condition.
A passenger has a medical
condition which, according to his or her physician:
causes the passenger air bag to pose a special risk
for the passenger; and
makes the potential harm from the passenger air bag
in a crash greater than the potential harm from
turning off the air bag and allowing the passenger,
even if belted, to hit the dashboard or windshield in
a crash.
CAUTION:
If the right front passenger's air bag is turned off
for a person who isn't in a risk group identified
by the national government, that person won't
have the extra protection of an air bag. In a
crash, the air bag wouldn't be able to inflate and
help protect the person sitting there. Don't turn
off the passenger's air bag unless the person
sitting there is in a risk group.
