possible while still maintaining control of the
vehicle, and should not lean on the door.

CAUTION:
Anyone who is up against, or very close to,
any air bag when it inflates can be seriously
injured or killed. Air bags plus lap-shoulder
belts offer the best protection for adults, but
not for young children and infants. Neither the
vehicle’s safety belt system nor its air bag
system is designed for them.
CAUTION: (Continued)
CAUTION: (Continued)
Young children and infants need the protection
that a child restraint system can provide.
Always secure children properly in your
vehicle. To read how, see the part of this
manual called “Older Children” or “Infants and
Young Children.”
There is an air bag
readiness light on the
instrument panel, which
shows the air bag symbol.
The system checks the air bag electrical system for
malfunctions. The light tells you if there is an electrical
problem. See Air Bag Readiness Light on page 3-30
for more information.
