Front passenger airbag
disabled
See Operator’s Manual
Front passenger front
air bag is deactivated
while driving even
though an adult or
someone larger than a
small individual is oc-
cupying the front pas-
senger seat. Forces
acting on the seat may
make the system
sense a decrease in
weight.
Stop the vehicle in a safe location as soon as possible and check the front
passenger seat for the following:
̈ Apply the parking brake (୴ page 66).
̈ Switch off the ignition (୴ page 39).
̈ Have the front passenger vacate the seat and exit the vehicle.
̈ Adjust the seat in a height position (୴ page 44).
̈ Make sure that no objects which apply forces to the seat are present (e.g. ob-
jects such as books, briefcases etc. lodged underneath, behind or around the
seat). Such forces may cause the system to sense that an occupant of a lesser
weight than actually present is on the front passenger seat.
̈ Keep the seat unoccupied, close the front passenger door and switch on the
ignition (
୴ page 39).
