If you need to deactivate the passenger airbag, follow these steps: Start the car and ensure the engine is off. Locate the passenger airbag deactivation button, usually found on the dashboard or the passenger side panel. It may be marked with a label indicating "AIRBAG OFF" or similar.

Press the passenger airbag deactivation button. Sometimes, you may need to use a tool, such as a key, to turn or lift the button.

After pressing or turning the deactivation button, you should see an indicator or light on the dashboard confirming that the passenger airbag is deactivated. This may be an icon of an airbag with a line through it or a message indicating that the passenger airbag is deactivated.
