Airbag Off Switch. Cadillac Evoq 2003

For 1990-2009 cars

Your vehicle has a switch in the glove box that you can use to turn off the passenger's airbag.

This switch should only be turned to AIR BAG OFF if the person in the passenger's position is a member of a passenger risk group identified by the national government as follows:

#### Infant. An infant (less than 1 year old) must ride in the front seat because:

• | my vehicle has no rear seat;

• | my vehicle has a rear seat too small to accommodate a rear-facing infant seat; or

• | the infant has a medical condition which, according to the infant's physician, makes it necessary for the infant to ride in the front seat so that the driver can constantly monitor the child's condition.

#### Child age 1 to 12.A child age 1 to 12 must ride in the front seat because:

• | my vehicle has no rear seat;

• | although children ages 1 to 12 ride in the rear seat(s) whenever possible, children ages 1 to 12 sometimes must ride in the front because no space is available in the rear seat(s) of my vehicle; or

• | the child has a medical condition which, according to the child's physician, makes it necessary for the child to ride in the front seat so that the driver can constantly monitor the child's condition.

#### Medical Condition.A passenger has a medical condition which, according to his or her physician:

• | causes the passenger airbag to pose a special risk for the passenger; and

• | makes the potential harm from the passenger airbag in a crash greater than the potential harm from turning off the airbag and allowing the passenger, even if belted, to hit the dashboard or windshield in a crash.

Caution: If the passenger's 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 an airbag. In a crash, the airbag will not be able to inflate and help protect the person sitting there. Do not turn off the passenger's airbag unless the person sitting there is in a risk group.

To turn off the passenger's airbag, insert your ignition key into the switch, push in, and move the switch to the off position.

The airbag off light on the center console switch panel will come on to let you know that the passenger's airbag is off. The light will stay on to remind you that the airbag is off. The passenger's airbag will remain off until you turn it back on.

To turn the passenger's airbag on again, insert your ignition key into the switch, push in, and move the switch to the on position.
