THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE 59 • The Passenger Airbag Disabled (PAD) Indicator Light indicates to the driver and passenger when the airbag is turned OFF. In the presence of a properly seated occupant, when the PAD indicator light is illuminated, the airbag is OFF. Also, when the Occupant Classification System detects either an empty seat or a weight less than the predetermined threshold, the ORC will not illuminate the PAD indicator light even though the airbag is turned OFF. • The Belt Tension Sensor (BTS) is located at the outboard passenger lap belt anchor. The BTS creates a signal based on outboard lap belt tension. This signal is sent to the OCM to ensure that the resultant bladder pressure increase due to applied lap belt tension does not cause a small occupant to be classified as a larger occupant. • The Bladder Mat and Pressure Sensor are located beneath the seat cushion foam. The pressure sensor sends a signal to the OCM. The front passenger seat assembly contains critical components that affect the front passenger airbag deployment. Correctly functioning front passenger seat components are critical for the Occupant Classification System (OCS) to properly classify the front passenger and calculate the proper airbag deployment. Do not make any modifications to the front passenger seat components, assembly, or to the seat cover. 2
