Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) Precautions
The front and side supplemental restraint systems (SRS) include 6 air bags.
Please verify
the air bags equipped on your vehicle by locating the
“
SRS AIRBAG
”
location
indicators.
These indicators are visible in the area where the air bags are installed.
The air bags are installed in the following locations:
l
The steering wheel hub (driver air bag)
l
The front passenger dashboard (front passenger air bag)
l
The outboard sides of the front seatbacks (side air bags)
l
The front and rear window pillars, and the roof edge along both sides (curtain air bags)
The air bag supplemental restraint systems are designed to provide supplemental protection
in certain situations, so seat belts are always important in the following ways:
Without seat belt usage, the air bags cannot provide adequate protection during an accident.
Seat belt usage is necessary to:
l
Keep the occupant from being thrown into an inflating air bag.
l
Reduce the possibility of injuries during an accident that is not designed for air bag
inflation, such as roll-over or rear impact.
l
Reduce the possibility of injuries in frontal, near frontal, side collisions that are not
severe enough to activate the air bags.
l
Reduce the possibility of being thrown from your vehicle.
l
Reduce the possibility of injuries to lower body and legs during an accident because the
air bags provide no protection to these parts of the body.
l
Hold the driver in a position which allows better control of the vehicle.
