• This vehicle is equipped with Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side Air Bags to provide

Air Bag mounted in the instrument panel below the glove compartment.

• This vehicle has an Occupant Classification System (“OCS”) in the right front passenger

the sensors estimates that:

• The front passenger seat is unoccupied or has very light objects in it.
• The front passenger seat is occupied by a small passenger, including a child.
• The front passenger seat is occupied by a rearward facing infant seat.
• The front passenger is not properly seated or his or her weight is taken off of the seat

for a period of time.

• If the Air Bag Warning Light

is not on during starting, stays on, or turns on while

driving, have the vehicle serviced by an authorized service center immediately.

• Refer to the Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details regarding the Supplemental

Restraint System (SRS).

WARNING!

Relying on the air bags alone could lead to more severe injuries in a collision. The air
bags work with your seat belt to restrain you properly. In some collisions, the air bags
won't deploy at all. Always wear your seat belts even though you have air bags.

Being too close to the steering wheel or instrument panel during Advanced Front Air
Bag deployment could cause serious injury, including death. Air bags need room to
inflate. Sit back, comfortably extending your arms to reach the steering wheel or
instrument panel.

Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflatable Curtains and Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side
Air Bags need room to inflate. Do not lean against the door or window. Sit upright in
the center of the seat.

Being too close to the Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflatable Curtain and/or Seat-
Mounted Side Air Bag during deployment could cause you to be severely injured or
killed.

Do not drive your vehicle after the air bags have deployed. If you are involved in
another collision, the air bags will not be in place to protect you.

After any collision, the vehicle should be taken to an authorized dealer immediately.
