Safety features of your vehicle

NOTICE

• Be sure to read information about the

SRS on the labels provided on the sun
visor.

• Advanced air bags are combined with

pre-tensioner seat belts to help pro-
vide enhanced occupant protection in
frontal crashes.

(Continued)
• Move your seat as far back as

practical from the front air bags,
while still maintaining control of
the vehicle.

• You and your passengers should

never sit or lean unnecessarily
close to the air bags. Improperly
positioned driver and passengers
can be severely injured by inflat-
ing air bags.

• Never lean against the door or

center console – always sit in an
upright position.

• Do not allow a passenger to ride

in the front seat when the PAS-
SENGER “AIR BAG OFF” indica-
tor is illuminated, because the air
bag will not deploy in the event of
a moderate or severe frontal
crash.

WARNING

Always use seat belts and child
restraints – every trip, every time,
everyone! Air bags inflate with con-
siderable force and in the blink of
an eye. Seat belts help keep occu-
pants in proper position to obtain
maximum benefit from the air bag.
Even with advanced air bags,
improperly and unbelted occupants
can be severely injured when the
air bag inflates. Always follow the
precautions about seat belts, air
bags and occupant safety con-
tained in this manual.
To reduce the chance of serious or
fatal injuries and receive the maxi-
mum safety benefit from your
restraint system:
• Never place a child in any child or

booster seat in the front seat.

• ABC – Always Buckle Children in

the back seat. It is the safest
place for children of any age to
ride.

• Front and side air bags can injure

occupants improperly positioned
in the front seats.
