Passenger airbag off
I notice that when I start my car, I get a message "Passenger airbag not enabled - check operation manual" I did that, but do not remember seeing that before. Is it normal to have that sign (and the passenger airbag OFF lit up on the center console) when I have no passenger? Is there a way always to enable it, regardless of whether there is someone sitting next to me?

The sensor in the seat must detect weight to enable the passenger airbag
There is a setting in the sds ..BUT Dealers will NOT do it as its a MAJOR liability
