I think they do it that way because with only the driver inside the car, it is not reason for the passenger airbags to open in case of an accident. Better to ask an expert thought.
Good luck !!!
Thanks Soki...
If the airbag is always deactivated when no one is sitting on the passenger seat. I should have the airbag light on (when not deactivated.) but this is not the case with me.
My thinking is completely the opposite... The airbag is always activated, if you sit on the seat, the sensor will judge if less than X Kgs/lbs it will deactivate the airbag, if more than that X Kgs/lbs the airbag stays on...

Ask the dealer... Emm... They told me to start with, I cannot put a child seat in front, better to put it in the back!!! Maybe they meant in the trunk??? (Got my meaning???)
