Passenger Airbag Status Indicator (Hatchback) Your vehicle has the passenger sensing system. {CAUTION: If the off symbol in the passenger airbag status indicator does not come on when you have a rear-facing child restraint installed in the right front passenger's seat, it means that the passenger sensing system has not turned off the passenger's frontal airbag and side airbag (if equipped). A child in a rear-facing child restraint can be seriously injured or killed if the right front passenger's airbag or airbags inflate. This is because the back of the rear-facing child restraint would be very close to the inflating airbag or airbags. Do not use a rear-facing child restraint in the right front passenger's seat unless the airbag or airbags have been turned off. If the off symbol is not lit on the passenger airbag status indicator, it means that the right front passenger's frontal airbag and seat-mounted side impact airbag (if equipped) are enabled (may inflate). United States - Hatchback Canada - Hatchback If you have a hatchback, the airbag off symbol will be visible in the Secondary Information Center (SIC) during the system check. When you start the vehicle, the passenger airbag status indicator will light for several seconds as a system check. Then, after several more seconds, if the off symbol is lit on the passenger airbag status indicator, it means that the passenger sensing system has turned off the right front passenger's frontal airbag and seat-mounted side impact airbag (if equipped). 3-46
