Safety features of your vehicle
40 3
Always be sure that you and all vehicle
occupants are seated and restrained
properly (sitting upright with the seat in
an upright position, centered on the seat
cushion, with the person's legs comfort-
ably extended, feet on the floor, and
wearing the safety belt properly) for the
most effective protection by the air bag
and the safety belt.
The OCS may not function properly if
the passenger takes actions which can
affect the detection system. These
include:
(1) Failing to sit in an upright position.
(2) Leaning against the door or center
console.
(3) Sitting towards the sides or the
front of the seat.
(4) Putting legs on the dashboard or
resting them on other locations.
(5) Improperly wearing the safety belt.
(6) Reclining the seat back.
(7) Unauthorized replacement of seat
cover.
(8) Covering seat with blanket
WARNING
Riding in an improper position or
placing weight on the front passen-
ger's seat when it is unoccupied by
a passenger adversely affects the
Occupant classification System
(OCS). Your OCS is designed to
resist electronic waves, but do not
place an electronic device such as
laptop computer on or near the seat
cushion since it may defeat the
proper functioning of the OCS.

Indicator/Warning light Devices
*1) The OCS system uses a field to eval-
uate a person's size to determine
whether the air bag should deploy. It
is possible for a child to be detected
and activate the OCS, thus allowing
the airbag to deploy. To maximize
safety, do not allow children to ride in
the front passenger seat.
*2) Never install a child restraint system
on the front passenger seat.
