After you
follow this
procedure
for
the
driver’s air bag,
then
disconnect
the
right-front
passenger’s air bag like
this:
Lower
the
passenger
side
hush
panel
under
the
glove
box.
Disconnect
the
yellow
connector
at
the
base of
the
instrument
panel.
When
the
work
is
complete,
if the
air
bag
system
was
disconnected, be sure
to
reattach
everything
and
replace
the
fuse
before
turning
the
ignition on. When
you turn
the
ignition key on, be
sure you
see
the
inflatable
restraint
light
on
the
instrument
panel.
If you
don’t see
this
light
flash
and
then
go
out
as
usual,
have
your
air bag
system repaired.

Safety
Belt
Use
During
Pregnancy
Safety
belts
work
for
everyone,
including
pregnant
women.
Like
all
occupants,
they-are
more
likely
to
be
seriously
injured if
they
don’t
wear
safety
belts.
A
pregnant
woman
should
wear
a
lap-shoulder belt, and
the lap
portion
should
be
worn
as low as
possible
throughout
the
pregnancy.
The best way to
protect
the
fetus
is
to
protect
the
mother.
When
a
safety
belt
is
worn
properly, it’s more likely
that
the
fetus won’t be hurt in a crash. For
pregnant
women, as for
anyone,
the key
to
making
safety
belts
effective
is
wearing
them
properly.
Right
Front
Passenger
Position
The right-front
passenger’s
safety belt
works
the same way as the driver’s
safety belt. See the
Index
under
Driver
Position.
When
the lap portion of the
belt is
pulled
out
all
the way,
it will lock. If
it
does,
let it go back
all the way and start
again.
If
your
vehicle
has
a
center
passenger
position, be sure to
use the correct
buckle
when
buckling
your
lap-shoulder
belt. If you find
that
the
latch
plate
will
not
go
fully
into
the
buckle,
see if
you
are using
the
buckle
for
the
center
passenger position.
