Securing a Child Restraint in the
Right Front Seat Position (With
Airbag Off Switch)
Your vehicle has a right front passenger airbag. If
one of the switches pictured in the following
illustrations is located in your glove box, your
vehicle has an airbag on-off switch that you can
use to manually turn on or off the right front
passenger’s airbag.Your switch may vary slightly. SeeAirbag Off
Switch on page 93for more on this, including
important safety information and illustrations of
alternate switch designs.
{CAUTION:
A child in a rear-facing child restraint can
be seriously injured or killed if the
passenger’s airbag inates. This is
because the back of the rear-facing child
restraint would be very close to the
inating airbag. Do not use a rear-facing
child restraint in this vehicle unless the
passenger’s airbag has been turned off.
Even though the airbag off switch is
designed to turn off the passenger’s
frontal airbag, no system is fail-safe, and
no one can guarantee that an airbag will
not deploy under some unusual
circumstance, even though it is turned off.
CAUTION: (Continued)

In many crashes severe enough to inate the
airbag, windshields are broken by vehicle
deformation. Additional windshield breakage may
also occur from the right front passenger
airbag.
Airbags are designed to inate only once.
After an airbag inates, you will need
some new parts for your airbag system. If you
do not get them, the airbag system will not
be there to help protect you in another crash.
A new system will include airbag modules
and possibly other parts. The service manual
for your vehicle covers the need to replace
other parts.
Your vehicle has a crash sensing and
diagnostic module which records information
after a crash. SeeVehicle Data Collection and
Event Data Recorders on page 656.
Let only qualied technicians work on the
airbag system. Improper service can mean that
an airbag system will not work properly. See
your dealer for service.
Airbag Off Switch
If one of the switches pictured in the following
illustrations is located in your glove box, your
vehicle has an airbag on-off switch that you can
use to manually turn on or off the right front
passenger’s airbag. Your switch may vary slightly.
If your vehicle does not have an airbag off switch,
it may have a passenger sensing system. See
Passenger Sensing System.

Passenger Sensing System
If your vehicle has one of the indicators pictured in
the following illustrations, then your vehicle has
a passenger sensing system for the right front
passenger’s position, unless there is an airbag off
switch located in the glovebox. If there is an
airbag off switch, your vehicle does not have a
passenger sensing system. SeeAirbag Off Switch
on page 93for more information.
The passenger airbag status indicator will be
visible when you start your vehicle on the
overhead console.
The words ON and OFF, or the symbol for on and
off, will be visible during the system check.When the system check is complete, either the
word ON or the word OFF, or the symbol for on or
the symbol for off, will be visible. SeePassenger
Airbag Status Indicator on page 252.
The passenger sensing system will turn off the
right front passenger’s frontal airbag under certain
conditions. The driver’s airbags are not part of
the passenger sensing system.
The passenger sensing system works with
sensors that are part of the right front passenger’s
seat and safety belt. The sensors are designed
to detect the presence of a properly-seated
occupant and determine if the passenger’s frontal
airbag should be enabled (may inate) or not.
Accident statistics show that children are safer
if they are restrained in the rear rather than
the front seat.
We recommend that children be secured in a rear
seat, including: an infant or a child riding in a
rear-facing child restraint; a child riding in a
forward-facing child seat; an older child riding in a
booster seat; and children, who are large
enough, using safety belts.
