Some vehicles have a switch to disable the passenger air-bag.

Others have a system that can detect a suitable (transponder equipped) child-seat in the passenger seat, and deactivate the air-bag while the seat is fitted.

Unless the vehicle has such a switch, or is equipped with such a system, it is not normally possible to disable the passenger air bag without also disabling all the air bags and seat-belt pre-tensioners.

For this reason it is recommended that child seats be fitted in the rear, or that those with medical reasons that make an air bag "undesirable" are seated in the rear.
