WARNING
Riding in an improper position or
placing weight on the front passen-

a passenger adversely affects the
Occupant Detection System (ODS).
Your ODS is designed to resist
electronic waves, but do not place
an electronic device such as laptop
computer on or near the seat cush-
ion since it may defeat the proper
