The occupant classification system is

designed to detect the presence of a

properly-seated front passenger and

determine if the passenger's front air bag

should be enabled (may inflate) or not.

The driver's front air bag is not affected

or controlled by the occupant classifica-

tion system.

If the front passenger seat is occupied by

a person that the system determines to

be of adult size, and he/she sits properly

(sitting upright with the seatback in an

upright position, centered on the seat

cushion with their seat belt on, legs com-

fortably extended and their feet on the

floor), the "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF"

indicator will be turned off and the front

passenger's air bag will be able to inflate,

if necessary, in frontal crashes.

You will find the "PASSENGER AIR BAG

OFF" indicator on the center facia panel.

This system detects the conditions 1~4

in the following table and activates or

deactivates the front passenger air bag

based on these conditions.

C040301AUN

Condition and operation in the front passenger occupant classification system

*1) The system judges a person of adult

size as an adult. When a smaller

adult sits in the front passenger seat,

the system may recognize him/her

as a child depending on his/her

physique and posture.

*2) Do not allow children to ride in the

front passenger seat. When a larger

child who has outgrown a child

restraint system sits in the front pas-

senger seat, the system may recog-

nize him/her as an adult depending

on his/her physique or posture.

*3) Never install a child restraint system

on the front passenger seat.

WARNING

Riding in an improper position or

placing weight on the front passen-

ger's seat when it is unoccupied by

a passenger adversely affects the

occupant classification system

(OCS).
