If the airbag readiness light stays on after you
start the vehicle or comes on when you are driving,
your airbag system may not work properly.
Have your vehicle serviced right away.
{CAUTION:
If the airbag readiness light stays on after
you start your vehicle, it means the airbag
system may not be working properly. The
airbags in your vehicle may not inflate in
a crash, or they could even inflate without
a crash. To help avoid injury to yourself
or others, have your vehicle serviced right
away if the airbag readiness light stays on
after you start your vehicle.
The airbag readiness light should flash for a few
seconds when you turn the ignition key to RUN.
If the light does not come on then, have it fixed so
it will be ready to warn you if there is a problem.
Passenger Airbag Status Indicator
Your vehicle has a passenger airbag status
indicator. If you have a sedan, the airbag off symbol
will be visible near the clock, located in the center of
the instrument panel during the system check. Or, if
you have a hatchback, the airbag off symbol will be
located in the secondary information center. See
Secondary Information Center (SIC) (Hatchback
Only) on page 175 for location information.
When the ignition key is turned to ON or START,
the passenger airbag status indicator will light for
several seconds as a system check. Then, after
several more seconds, if the off symbol is lit on the
passenger airbag status indicator, it means that
the passenger sensing system has turned off
the right front passenger’s frontal airbag
and side impact airbag (if equipped).
