Passenger Airbag Status Indicator {CAUTION: If the airbag readiness light stays on or keeps flashing after you start your vehicle, it means the airbag system and safety belt pretension system may not be working properly. The airbags in your vehicle may not inflate in a crash, or they could even inflate without a crash. To help avoid injury to yourself or others, have your vehicle serviced right away if the airbag readiness light stays on after you start your vehicle. The airbag readiness light should come on for about seven seconds when you turn the ignition key to ON. If the light doesn't come on then, have it fixed so it will be ready to warn you if there is a problem. Your vehicle has a passenger airbag status indicator in the instrument panel. The indicator next to the passenger airbag status indicator lights is the passenger safety belt reminder light. See Safety Belt Reminder Light on page 3-27 for more information on that indicator. When the ignition key is turned to ON, the passenger airbag status indicator will light ON and OFF as a system check. Then, after several more seconds, the status indicator will light either ON or OFF if there is weight on the seat or if the safety belt is buckled, to let you know the status of the right front passenger's frontal and seat-mounted side impact airbag (if equipped.) 3-29
