Front Air Bags
This vehicle has front air bags and lap/shoulder belts for both the driver and front passenger. The
front air bags are a supplement to the seat belt restraint systems. The driver front air bag is
mounted in the center of the steering wheel. The passenger front air bag is mounted in the
instrument panel, above the glove compartment. The words “SRS AIRBAG” or “AIRBAG” are
embossed on the air bag covers.
WARNING!
•
Being too close to the steering wheel or instrument panel during 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.
•
Never place a rear-facing child restraint in front of an air bag. A deploying passenger front
air bag can cause death or serious injury to a child 12 years or younger, including a child in
a rear-facing child restraint.
•
Only use a rear-facing child restraint in a vehicle with a rear seat.
Driver And Passenger Front Air Bag Features
The Advanced Front Air Bag system has multistage driver and front passenger air bags. This system
provides output appropriate to the severity and type of collision as determined by the Occupant
Restraint Controller (ORC), which may receive information from the front impact sensors (if
equipped) or other system components.
