Side air bags
Your vehicle is equipped with a side air
bag in each front seat. The purpose of
the air bag is to provide the vehicle's driv-
er and the front passenger with addition-
al protection than that offered by the seat
belt alone.
To reduce the risk of serious injury
or death from an inflating front air
bags, take the following precau-
tions:
•
Seat belts must be worn at all
times to help keep occupants
positioned properly.
•
Move your seat as far back as
possible from front air bags,
while still maintaining control of
the vehicle.
•
Never lean against the door or
center console.
•
Do not allow the front passenger
to place their feet or legs on the
dashboard.
•
No objects (such as crash pad
cover, cellular phone holder, cup
holder,
perfume or stickers)
should be placed over or near the
air bag modules on the steering
wheel, instrument panel, wind-
shield glass, and the front pas-
senger's panel above the glove
box. Such objects could cause
harm if the vehicle is in a crash
severe enough to cause the air
bags to deploy.

Do not attach any objects on

ror.
