PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION

WARNING: Airbags do not inflate slowly or gently, and the risk
of injury from a deploying airbag is the greatest close to the trim

covering the airbag module.

WARNING: All occupants of your vehicle, including the driver,
should always properly wear their safety belts, even when an

airbag supplemental restraint system is provided. Failure to properly
wear your safety belt could seriously increase the risk of injury or
death.

WARNING: Airbags can kill or injure a child in a child seat.
Always transport children 12 years old and under in the back

seat and always properly use appropriate child restraints.

WARNING: Never place your arm over the airbag module, as a
deploying airbag can result in serious arm fractures or other

injuries.

WARNING: Airbags can kill or injure a child in a child seat.
Never place a rear-facing child seat in front of an active airbag. If

you must use a forward-facing child seat in the front seat, move the
seat upon which the child seat is installed all the way back.

WARNING: Do not attempt to service, repair, or modify the
airbag supplemental restraint systems or its fuses as you could be

seriously injured or killed. Contact your authorized dealer as soon as
possible.

WARNING: Several airbag system components get hot after
inflation. Do not touch them after inflation as this may result in

serious injury.
