Where do I find the switch to deactivate the passenger airbag?

I've recently purchased a 2013 Ford Kuga. There's no passenger air bag switch in either the glovebox or the end of the console (there is an indent where one would be fitted though). Am I missing something? Does it even have one fitted? Thanks in advance.

The car has a passenger airbag but some early models of the Ford Kuga were never fitted with a switch to deactivate it (it was an optional extra). If there is no switch in the glovebox or on the dashboard then you will not be able to deactivate it. This means you will have to use the rear sears to carry a baby seat.
