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.

WARNING: 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.

WARNING: Always transport children 12 years old and under in

a rear seating position and always properly use appropriate child

restraints.

The front passenger sensing system can automatically turn off the

passenger front airbag. The system is designed to help protect small

(child size) occupants from airbag deployments when they are

improperly seated or restrained in the front passenger seat contrary to

proper child-seating or restraint usage recommendations. 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 restraints (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 to tailor the airbag deployment and

safety belt pretensioner activation depending upon safety belt usage.
