Essentially the light means different things depending on whether or not someone is in the passenger seat as well as how heavy/big that person is. The light AND airbag are off when noone is in the seat. The light is ON and airbag OFF when a child is in the seat. Finally, the light is OFF and the airbag ON when an adult is in the seat. (I've decided the light just makes no sense...the engineers weren't too bright when they designed how the light works). I've included a clipping from the manual below which explains...

Sounds perfectly clear to me.

It makes sense to have the light 'illuminate' when a child is in the seat so that you can clearly tell when it (the airbag) is OFF for sure. If an adult is sitting in the seat clearly the airbag is on and why should you be reminded via light or no light? The child setting is the one you should be alerted to in most cases.

I see no problem here.
