Medical Condition. A passenger has a medical condition which, according to his or her physician: • causes the passenger air bag to pose a special risk for the passenger; and To turn off the right front passenger's frontal air bag, insert your ignition key into the switch, push in, and move the switch to the off position. • makes the potential harm from the passenger air bag in a crash greater than the potential harm from turning off the air bag and allowing the passenger, even if belted, to hit the dashboard or windshield in a crash. {CAUTION: If the right front passenger's frontal air bag 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 air bag. In a crash, the air bag would not be able to inflate and help protect the person sitting there. Do not turn off the passenger's frontal air bag unless the person sitting there is in a risk group. The air bag off light will come on to let you know that the right front passenger's frontal air bag is off. The right front passenger's frontal air bag will remain off until you turn it back on again, and the air bag off light will stay on to remind you that the air bag is off. 1-71
