rear-facing child seats, this occurs because they are initially sitting very

close to the airbag. For other occupants, this occurs when the occupant is

not properly restrained by safety belts or child safety seats and they move

forward during pre-crash braking. The most effective way to reduce the

risk of unnecessary injuries is to make sure all occupants are properly

restrained. Accident statistics suggest that children are much safer when

properly restrained in the rear seating positions than in the front.

Air bags can kill or injure a child in a child seat. NEVER place a

rear-facing child seat in front of an active air bag. If you must

use a forward-facing child seat in the front seat, move the seat all the

way back.

Always transport children 12 years old and under in the back

seat and always properly use appropriate child restraints.

The front passenger sensing system can automatically turn off the

passenger front airbag when a rear facing child seat, a forward-facing

child restraint, or a booster seat is detected. Even with this technology,

parents are STRONGLY encouraged to always properly restrain children

in the rear seat. The sensor also turns off the airbag when the passenger

seat is empty to prevent unnecessary replacement of the airbag(s) after

a collision.

When the front passenger seat is occupied and the sensing system has

turned off the passenger’s frontal airbag, the “pass airbag off” indicator

will light and stay lit to remind you that the front passenger frontal

airbag is off. See Front passenger sensing system in the Airbag

supplemental restraint system (SRS) section of this chapter.

Front safety belt usage sensors

The front safety belt usage sensors detect whether or not the driver and

front outboard passenger safety belts are fastened. This information

allows your Personal Safety System娂 to tailor the airbag deployment and

safety belt pretensioner activation depending upon safety belt usage.

Refer to Safety belt usage sensors later in this chapter.

Front outboard safety belt pretensioners

The safety belt pretensioners at the front outboard seating positions are

designed to tighten the safety belts firmly against the occupant’s body

during frontal collisions. This helps increase the effectiveness of the

safety belts. In frontal collisions, the safety belt pretensioners can be

activated alone or, if the collision is of sufficient severity, together with

the front airbags.
