This is a front Passenger Airbag Activated Indicator symbol. It is seen in yellow/amber/orange when the passenger airbag is active and available to inflate in the event of an collision and appears as a child in a child seat on a regular seat in a circle.

- Otherwise, you can return to our main Manufacturer Symbols pages and scan again!
The front passenger airbag system must be deactivated for use of the child restraint system on the passenger. The system can be deactivated using a key operated switch located in the glovebox. Other systems such as the side airbag and curtain airbag systems, and the belt pre tensioners are unaffected.
Despite the strikethrough in the symbol, the system is active and available.
