*If the passenger airbag status indicator does not match the situation, do not use the seat. The passenger must ride in a
different seat. Schedule a service appointment.
NOTE: It takes approximately six seconds after you power on CybertruckModel SModel X for the occupant classification
system (OCS) to report accurate status of the front passenger airbag. As a result, when you first power on
CybertruckModel SModel X, even in situations when it should be OFF because the seat is occupied by a weight of 20 lbs (9
kg) or less, it will take the touchscreen approximately six seconds to display the status, PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF. If it fails to
do so, schedule a service appointment and do not seat a child in the front passenger seating position.
To make sure the sensing system can correctly detect occupancy status, eliminate the following:
• Objects lodged under the seat.
• Heavy objects sitting on the seat (briefcase, large purse).
• Objects wedged between the seat back and seat cushion.
• Cargo interfering with the seat.
• Aftermarket items attached to, or sitting on or between, the seat and occupant including but not limited to covers, mats,
blankets, etc.
These conditions can interfere with the occupancy sensor. If you have eliminated the above possibilities, and the airbag status
is still incorrect, ask passengers to ride in the rear seats and schedule a service appointment to have the airbag system
checked.
NOTE: The front passenger occupancy sensor affects the operation of the passenger front airbags only. The side airbags are
not affected.
WARNING: If the front passenger airbag is not turning on or off as expected based on the weight thresholds previously
described, schedule a service appointment immediately.
WARNING: If seating a child in the front passenger seat is legally permissible in your market region, it is the driver's
responsibility to ensure that the passenger front airbag is OFF. Never seat a child in a rear facing safety seat in the front
passenger seat with an active airbag. DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY to the child can occur. Per recommendations by the
National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, all occupants age 12 and under must ride in the rear seats.

Ensuring Accurate Occupant Detection
To help ensure an occupant in the front passenger seat can be accurately detected, the passenger must:
• Wear a seat belt.
• Sit upright on the center of the seat cushion, with shoulders resting against the seat back and legs extended comfortably in
front with feet on the floor. See Examples of Correct and Incorrect Seating Positions on page 810.
• Remain positioned on the seat cushion and not lift their weight off the seat (for example, by pushing their feet against the
floor or pressing on the center console or armrest to lift up).
• Never wear thick, wet, or bulky clothing (such as ski wear or padded clothing).
In addition to the items listed above, the following situations can interfere with the accuracy of the occupant classification
system:
• Incorrectly placing a child restraint system so that the entire lower section is not positioned against the seat cushion.
• Objects lodged under the seat or wedged between the seat back and cushion.
• Heavy objects sitting on the seat (briefcase, large purse).
• Cargo interfering with the seat.
These conditions can interfere with the occupancy sensor. If you have eliminated the above possibilities, and the airbag status
is still incorrect, instruct passengers to ride in the rear seats and schedule a service appointment to have the airbag system
checked.
NOTE: Tesla follows NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration) recommendations that all occupants age 12 and
under be seated in a rear seat.
NOTE: The front passenger occupancy sensor affects the operation of the passenger front and side airbags.
WARNING: Failure to follow the above instructions can adversely affect the Occupant Classification System (OCS)
which can cause serious injury or death.
WARNING: If the front passenger airbag is not turning on or off as expected, do not seat a passenger in the front
passenger seat. Schedule a service appointment.
WARNING: To ensure accuracy of the occupant detection system, do not make any modifications to the front passenger
seat.

Inflation Effects
WARNING: When airbags inflate, a fine powder is released. This powder can irritate the skin and should be thoroughly
flushed from the eyes and from any cuts or abrasions.
After inflation, the airbags deflate to provide a gradual cushioning effect for the occupants and to ensure the driver’s forward
vision is not obscured.
If airbags have inflated, or if your vehicle has been in a collision, always have the airbags, seat belt pre-tensioners and any
associated components checked and, if necessary, replaced.
In a collision, in addition to the airbags inflating:
• Doors unlock.
• Hazard warning lights turn on.
• Interior lights turn on.
• High voltage is disabled (you must contact Roadside Assistance to restore high voltage power).
• Seat belt pre-tensioners retract the seat belt anchor and seat belt webbing.
NOTE: Depending on the nature of the impact and the forces involved, doors may not unlock in a collision and/or damage may
prevent them from opening. In such cases, the door may need to be opened using the interior manual release, or other means
of extrication (for example, exiting through another door, breaking the window, etc.).

Airbag Warnings
WARNING: Do not place objects over or near airbags because any such objects could cause harm if the vehicle is in a
crash severe enough to cause the airbag to inflate.
WARNING: All occupants, including the driver, should always wear their seat belts, whether or not an airbag is also
provided at their seating position, to minimize the risk of severe injury or death in the event of a collision.
WARNING: Front seat occupants should not place their arms over the airbag module, as an inflating airbag can cause
fractures or other injuries.
WARNING: Airbags inflate with considerable speed and force, which can cause injury. To limit injuries, ensure that
occupants are wearing seat belts and are correctly seated, with the seat positioned as far back as possible. The National
Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) recommends a minimum distance of 10 inches (25 cm) between an
occupant’s chest and an airbag.
WARNING: Children should not be seated on the front passenger seat unless permitted by regulations in your market
region. Follow all regulations in your region for the appropriate way to seat a child based on the child's weight, size, and
age. The safest place to seat infants and young children is in a rear seating position. Seating an infant or child in a rearfacing child restraint system on a seat equipped with an operational airbag can cause serious injury or death.
WARNING: To ensure correct inflation of the side airbags, maintain an unobstructed gap between an occupant’s torso
and the side of CybertruckModel SModel X.
WARNING: Passengers shouldn't lean their heads against doors. Doing so can cause injury if a curtain airbag inflates.
WARNING: Do not allow passengers to obstruct the operation of an airbag by placing feet, knees or any other part of the
body on or near an airbag.
WARNING: Do not attach or place objects on or near the front airbags, the side of the front seats, the headliner at the
side of the vehicle, or any other airbag cover that could interfere with inflation of an airbag. These include but are not
limited to: steering wheel covers, decals, seat cushions or pillows, etc. Objects can cause serious injury if the vehicle is
in a collision severe enough to cause the airbag to inflate.
WARNING: Do not use seat covers on the front seats. Doing so could restrict deployment of the seat-mounted airbags if
a collision occurs.
WARNING: Following inflation, some airbag components are hot. Do not touch until they have cooled.
