WARNING
If the
indicator lamp
illuminates and remains illuminated when the weight of a typical
adult or someone larger than a small individual has been detected on the
passenger seat, do not
allow any occupant to use the passenger seat until the system has been repaired.

WARNING
If the
indicator lamp does not
illuminate or remains out with the weight of a typical
12-month-old child in a standard child restraint or less, or is unoccupied, on
the front-passenger
seat, do not transport a child on the front-passenger seat until the system has
been repaired.
