2008 Toyota RAV4 Owners Manual - Page 121

'08 Rav4_U (L/O 0802) The "AIR BAG OFF" indicator light should be illuminated when the engine switch is in the "ON" position and the child is in the child restraint system after following these procedures. The "AIR BAG OFF" indicator light indicates the SRS front passenger airbag and side airbag on the passenger side will not deploy. If the "AIR BAG ON" indicator light is illuminated, remove the child restraint system and reinstall it with the engine switch in the "ACC" or "LOCK" position. If the "AIR BAG ON" indicator light is illuminated when the engine switch is turned to the "ON" position, then the SRS front passenger airbag and side airbag on the passenger side may deploy in an accident. Do not drive the vehicle in this condition. Remove the child restraint system and contact your Toyota dealer. CAUTION D Never install a rear −facing child restraint system on the front passenger seat. A forward−facing child restraint system should only be installed on the front passenger seat when unavoidable. If you must install the child restraint system on the front passenger seat, put the seat in its most rearward position, and install the forward−facing child restraint system in the proper order. Otherwise, the front passenger occupant classification system can not detect the presence of the child restraint system and the front passenger airbag and side airbag on the front passenger seat could deploy, and the impact could cause death or serious injury to the child. D Never install a rear −facing child restraint system on the front passenger seat even if the "AIR BAG OFF" indicator light is illuminated. In the event of an accident, the impact of the rapid inflation of the front passenger airbag could cause death or serious injury to the child if the rear −facing child restraint system is installed on the front passenger seat. 93 2008 RAV4 from Feb.
