WARNING: If a fault is detected
in the system, be aware that the
front passenger airbag will not
deploy in the event of a collision.
The SRS system and occupant
classification sensor should be
inspected by a Lotus Retailer as
soon as possible.
WARNING: Do not attempt to
open, remove or repair any
components in the occupant
classification sensor system.
This could cause the system to
malfunction. Repairs should only
be carried out by a trained and
qualified service technician.
WARNING: The passenger seat
should not be modified in any
way. This could reduce pressure
on the seat cushion, which might
interfere with the occupant
classification sensor system’s
function.
This also includes the fitment of
aftermarket seat covers and seat
heaters.
WARNING: Do not place any
objects on the passenger seat
when a child is seated on the
seat, that could increase the total
weight applied to the seat. This
extra weight could cause the
system to enable the airbag, which
may cause it to deploy in the
event of a collision.
WARNING: The seat belt should
never be wrapped around an
object on the passenger seat.
This could interfere with the
occupancy weight system
functionality.
WARNING: The full weight of the
passenger seat should always
be applied to the seat cushion.
The passenger should never lift
themselves off the seat cushion
using either the door armrest, the
center console, by pressing their
feet on the floor, by sitting on the
edge of the seat cushion, or by
pressing against the backrest. This
could cause system to disable the
passenger airbags.
WARNING: Do not place any
type of object on the passenger
seat in such a way that jamming,
pressing, or squeezing occurs
between the object and the
passenger seat, other than as a
direct result of the correct use of
the Automatic Locking Retractor/
Emergency Locking Retractor
(ALR/ELR) seat belt, see page 37.
No objects should be placed
under the passenger seat. This
could interfere with the occupant
classification system functionality.
WARNING: The occupant
classification system is sensitive
to larger electrical devices on
the passenger seat (like laptops)
charging or powered from any
of the vehicle power outlets.
Such devices may be recognized
as adults and receive airbag
activation in case of a collision,
and they may receive a seat
belt reminder warning signal.
If this is unwanted, charging of
larger electrical devices on the
passenger seat should be avoided.
