Objects
on the covers marked ‘‘SRS
AIRBAG’’ could interfere with
the proper operation of the
airbags or be propelled inside
the vehicle and hurt someone if
the airbags inflate.
Devices intended to improve
occupant comfort or reposition the
shoulder part of a seat belt can
reduce the protective capability of
the seat belt and increase the
chance of serious injury in a crash.
Carrying hard or sharp
objects on your lap, or driving with
a pipe or other sharp object in
your mouth, can result in injuries
if your front airbag inflates.
If your
hands or arms are close to an
airbag cover, they could be injured
if the airbag inflates.
All passengers
must sit in locked, upright seats
and be properly restrained by seat
belts.
A passenger who is not
wearing a seat belt during a crash
or emergency stop can be thrown
against the inside of the vehicle,
against other occupants, or out of
the vehicle.
If they do, they
could be very seriously injured in a
crash.
If a side airbag or a
side curtain airbag inflates, a
cup holder or other hard object
attached on or near the door
could be propelled inside the
vehicle and hurt someone.
This could
result in injuries if your side
curtain airbag inflates.
