How heavy does the passanger have to be in order to sit in the seat with an airbag?

I personally have never seen published "weight limits" when it comes to the safety of airbags. Generally, the cut-off is children under the age of 12 should be in the back seat. If I had to guess on the weight, I would agree with Sienna, 100 lbs. sounds about right.
Here are some sites with information about airbag safety...

I hope that helps answer your question.
Good luck. Be safe!

verify the homeowners handbook within the airbag segment, it must fit the seatbelt directions. In ontario a baby need to be four'two" to make use of a lap belt. Also you would verify on the net beneath airbag safeguard, or verify with the patrons reviews on kids/airbag injuries, Be cautious and be nontoxic.

Federal testing requires air bags to be safe for an average-sized adult male (5 feet 7 inches tall and 170 pounds) and a small adult female (5 feet tall and 100 pounds) wearing seat belts in collisions up to 30 mph. The air bags must also be safe for a small adult female who is not wearing a seat belt in a collision up to 25 mph.
Hope this is what your looking for..
