If they do, they

could be very seriously injured in a
crash.

Carrying hard or sharp

objects on your lap, or driving with
a pipe or other sharp objects in
your mouth, can result in injuries
if your front airbag inflates.

If your

hands or arms are close to the
airbag cover in the center of the
steering wheel or on top of the
dashboard, they could be injured if
the front airbag inflates.

Devices intended to improve

occupant comfort or reposition the
shoulder part of a seat belt can
severely compromise the
protective capability of the seat
belt and increase the chance of
serious injury in a crash.

If a side airbag

inflates, a cup holder or other hard
object attached on or near the
door could be propelled inside the
vehicle and hurt someone.

Any object

attached to or placed on the covers
marked ‘‘SRS AIRBAG’’ in the
center of the steering wheel and
on top of the dashboard could
interfere with the proper operation
of the airbags. Or, if the airbags
inflate, the objects could be
propelled inside the vehicle and
hurt someone.

Additional Saf ety Precautions

same seat belt.

f rom the airbag covers.
