The passenger front air bag is
activated while driving even
though a child, small individual,
or object below the system’s
weight threshold is on the pas-
senger seat, or the passenger
seat is empty. Objects on the
seat or forces acting on the seat
may make the system sense

Stop the vehicle in a safe location as soon as possible and
check the passenger seat for the following:

̈ Apply the parking brake (୴ page 63).
̈ Remove child and child restraint from passenger seat.
