When you turn the passenger's frontal air bag off, the air bag off light, located on the roof panel above the rearview mirror, will come on and stay on to remind you that the air bag has been turned off. This light will go off when you turn the passenger's frontal air bag back on again. See Airbag Off Switch for more on this, including important safety information.
Caution: If the passenger's frontal airbag is turned off for a person who is not in a risk group identified by the national government, that person will not have the extra protection of a frontal airbag. In a crash, the airbag would not be able to inflate and help protect the person sitting there. Do not turn off the passenger's frontal airbag unless the person sitting there is in a risk group. See Airbag Off Switch for more on this, including important safety information.
Caution: If the airbag readiness light ever comes on when you have turned off the passenger's frontal airbag, it means that something may be wrong with the airbag system. The passenger's frontal airbag could inflate even though the switch is off. If this ever happens, do not let anyone whom the national government has identified as a member of a passenger airbag risk group sit in the passenger's position (for example, do not secure a rear-facing child restraint in your vehicle) until you have your vehicle serviced.
