2008 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Pickup Owner's Manual - Page 220

When you manually turn the right front passenger's airbag off using the airbag on-off switch in the glove box, the indicator light OFF or the off symbol will come on and stay on to remind you that the airbag has been turned off. This light will go off when you turn the airbag on. See Airbag Off Switch on page 1-78 for more on this, including important safety information. {CAUTION: If the airbag readiness light ever comes on when you have turned off the airbag, it means that something may be wrong with the airbag system. The right front passenger's airbag could inflate even though the switch is off. If this ever happens, do not let anyone whom the national government has identified as a member of a passenger airbag risk group sit in the right front passenger's position (for example, do not secure a rear-facing child restraint in the right front passenger's seat) until you have your vehicle serviced. See Airbag Off Switch on page 1-78 and Airbag Readiness Light on page 3-40 for more on this, including important safety information. If the word ON or the on symbol is lit, it means that the right front passenger's frontal airbag is enabled (may inflate). See Airbag Off Switch on page 1-78 for more on this, including important safety information. If, after several seconds, both status indicator lights remain on, or if there are no lights at all, there may be a problem with the lights or the airbag on-off switch. See your dealer/retailer for service. {CAUTION: If the right front passenger's airbag is turned off for a person who is not in a risk group identified by the national government, that person will not have the extra protection of an airbag. In a crash, the airbag will not be able to inflate and help protect the person sitting there. Do not turn off the passenger's airbag unless the person sitting there is in a risk group identified by the national government. See Airbag Off Switch on page 1-78 for more on this, including important safety information. 3-42
