Knowing your vehicle
Driver's knee air bag
The driver's knee air bag is stored below
the steering wheel of the instrument
panel.
This works in conjunction with the frontal
airbags in a certain frontal impact colli-
sion to protect the knee of the driver.
Front passenger’s air bag
The front passenger’s air bag is stored in
the instrument panel, above the glove
box area.
Since you cannot anticipate which air
bags will deploy or from what direction,
never put any objects or ornaments on
the instrument panel.
Occupant classification system
The occupant classification system
detects the presence of a passenger in
the front passenger's seat and will turn
off the front passenger's air bag under
certain conditions.
The occupant classification system is
designed to detect the presence of a
properly-seated occupant and determine
if the front passenger's air bag should be
enabled (may inflate) or not.
Only the front passenger front air bag is
controlled by the Occupant Classification
System.
