• The seat belts for both front seating positions are equipped with pretensioning devices

that are designed to remove slack from the seat belt in the event of a collision.

• A deployed pretensioner or a deployed air bag must be replaced immediately.

WARNING!

In a collision, you and your passengers can suffer much greater injuries if you are not
buckled up properly. You can strike the interior of your vehicle or other passengers, or you
can be thrown out of the vehicle. Always be sure you and others in your vehicle are
buckled up properly.

risk of injury in rear, side, or rollover collisions.
