(On the glove box lid) if the passenger module airbag is disconnected

NOTE: The passenger airbag module SRS ignition cable can be disconnected in accordance with the car owner's wishes in markets where this does not conflict with statutory requirements. This allows a rear-facing child seat to be placed on the front passenger seat. To disconnect and connect the passenger module airbag SRS ignition cable, follow the instruction in Service Bulletin 8-88-805.

In USA/Canada cars there is an SRS decal on the inside of the sun visor. This decal is not illustrated.
