   • *1: The system judges a person of average adult weight or more as an adult. If a smaller adult sits in the front passenger seat, the system may not recognize them as an adult depending on their physique and posture.

   • *2: The system may not recognize a child or a child in a child restrain system as a child depending on factors such as the positioning of the child restraint system or the child's physique or posture.

   Tech Tips

   
   

   • The passenger airbag ON/OFF indicator illuminates based on the following timing chart in order to check the indicator light circuit.

   • When the occupant classification system has a malfunction, both the SRS warning light and passenger airbag ON/OFF indicator ("OFF") come on. In this case, check for airbag system DTCs first.
