Conditions in which front passenger’s SRS frontal airbag is activated

The front passenger’s SRS frontal airbag will be activated for deployment upon impact when any of the following conditions are met regarding the front passenger’s seat.

- When the seat is occupied by an adult.

- When a heavy article is placed on the seat.

When the front passenger’s seat is occupied by an adult, observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may lessen the load on the front passenger’s seat, deactivating the front passenger’s SRS frontal airbag despite the fact that the seat is occupied by an adult.

- Do not allow the rear seat occupant to lift the front passenger’s seat cushion using his/her feet.

- Do not place any article under the front passenger’s seat, or squeeze any article from behind and under the seat. This may lift the seat cushion.

- Do not squeeze any article between the front passenger’s seat and side trim/ pillar, door or center console box. This may lift the seat cushion.
