Safety features of your vehicle

Any child age 12 and under should ride
in the rear seat. Children too large for
child restraints should use the available
lap/shoulder belts. No matter what type
of crash, children of all ages are safer
when restrained in the rear seat.

NOTICE

Do not modify or replace the front pas-
senger seat. Don't place anything on or
attach anything such as a blanket, front
seat covers or after market seat heater
to the front passenger seat. This can
adversely affect the occupant detection
system.

If the occupant detection system is not
working properly, the SRS air bag warn-
ing light

on the instrument panel will

illuminate because the passenger's front
air bag is connected with the occupant
detection system. If there is a malfunc-
tion of the occupant detection system,
the PASSENGER AIR BAG “OFF” indica-
tor will not illuminate and the passenger's
front air bag will inflate in frontal impact
crashes even if there is no occupant in
the front passenger's seat.

Driver's and passenger's front air
bag

Your vehicle is equipped with an
Advanced Supplemental Restraint (Air
Bag) System and lap/shoulder belts at
both the driver and passenger seating
position.
