WARNING! (Continued)

Do not use accessory seat covers or place objects

between you and the side air bags; the performance
could be adversely affected and/or objects could be
pushed into you, causing serious injury.

Your vehicle is equipped with SABIC air bags, do

not have any accessory items installed which will
alter the roof, including adding a sunroof to your
vehicle. Do not add roof racks that require perma-
nent attachments (bolts or screws) for installation
on the vehicle roof. Do not drill into the roof of the
vehicle for any reason.

Do not allow occupants to extend any part of their

body outside of the window.

SAB and SABIC air bags are a supplement to the seat belt
restraint system. Occupants, including children who are
up against or very close to SAB or SABIC air bags can be

seriously injured or killed. Occupants, especially chil-
dren, should not lean on or sleep against the door, side
windows, or area where the SAB or SABIC air bags
inflate, even if they are in an infant or child restraint.

Always sit upright as possible with your back against the
seat back, use the seat belts properly, and use the appro-
priate sized child restraint, infant restraint or booster seat
recommended for the size and weight of the child.

Knee Impact Bolsters

The Knee Impact Bolster helps protect the knees of the
front passenger, and position the front occupant for the
best interaction with the Advanced Front Air Bag.

Along with seat belts and pretensioners, Advanced Front
Air Bags work with the bolsters to provide improved
protection for the driver and front passenger. Side air
bags also work with seat belts to improve occupant
protection.
