The occupant detection system is
designed to detect the presence of a

determine if the passenger's front air
bag should be enabled (may inflate) or
not. Only the front passenger’s air bag is
controlled by the Occupant Detection
System.
Do not put anything in front of the pas

the seat cushion with their seat belt on,
legs comfortably extended and their feet
on the floor), the PASSENGER AIR BAG
“OFF” indicator will turn off and the front
