{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 or START. 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 sensing system.
There is a passenger airbag status indicator on the
instrument panel.
The indicator next to the passenger airbag status
indicator lights is the passenger safety belt
reminder light. See Passenger Safety Belt
Reminder Light on page 130 for more information
on that indicator.
When the ignition key is turned to RUN or START,
the passenger airbag status indicator will light
ON and OFF, or the symbol for on and off,
for several seconds as a system check. Then,
after several more seconds, the status indicator
will light either ON or OFF, or either the on
or off symbol to let you know the status of the
right front passenger’s frontal airbag.
