PASSENGER SUPPLEMENTAL
AIR BAG ON/OFF SWITCH AND
LIGHT
WARNING
Air bags and seat belts are designed to
work as a unit. Do not switch the air bag
OFF unless you meet federal govern-
ment criteria. Switching off the air bag
may increase the risk of serious or fatal
injuries in a collision where the air bag
would have inflated.
In
rare
instances,
some
passengers
are
exposed to serious injury risks from inflating
air
bags,
especially
if
not
properly
re-
strained. The U.S. and Canadian federal
governments recognize other limited circum-
stances in which an air bag could reduce
safety.
The
passenger
air
bag
ON/OFF
switch is, therefore, allowed in this vehicle.
Because the overall benefits of air bags are
great, in most situations air bags should not
be switched off unless special government
criteria exist.
The passenger air bag ON/OFF switch is
located
in
the
center
of
the
instrument
panel, near the ashtray. It can be used to
