Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) - airbag
4-26 Seat and restraint systems
4
N00407701762
This vehicle is equipped with a Supplemental
Restraint System (SRS), which includes air-
bags for the driver and passengers.
The SRS front airbags are designed to supple-
ment the primary protection of the driver and
front passenger seat belt systems by provid-
ing those occupants with protection against
head and chest injuries in certain moderate to
severe frontal collisions. The SRS front air-
bags, together with sensors at the front of the
vehicle and sensors attached to the front
seats, form an advanced airbag system.
The SRS driver’s knee airbag is designed to
supplement the primary protection of the
driver’s seat belt system. It can reduce the
forward movement of the driver’s lower legs
and provide increased overall body protection
in certain moderate to severe frontal colli-
sions.
The SRS side airbags and the curtain airbags
are also designed to supplement the seat belts.
The SRS side airbags provide the driver and
front passenger with protection against chest
injuries by deploying the bag on the side
impacted in moderate to severe side impact
collisions. The SRS curtain airbags provide
the driver and the passengers on the front seat
and the rear outboard seats with protection
against head injuries by deploying the curtain
airbag on the side impacted in moderate to
severe side impact collisions and by deploy-
ing both curtain airbags when a rollover is
detected. The curtain airbags are also
designed to help reduce the risk of complete
and partial ejection from the vehicle through
side windows in both side impact and roll-
over type accidents.
The SRS airbags are NOT a substitute for use
of the seat belts. For maximum protection in
all types of accidents, seat belts must
ALWAYS be worn by everyone who drives or
rides in this vehicle (with infants and small
children in an appropriate child restraint sys-
tem in the rear seat, and older children buck-
led in the rear seat). Refer to “Child restraint
systems” on page 4-18.
 Never use an organic solvent to clean the
seat belt webbing. Do not attempt to
bleach or re-dye the seat belt webbing.
These may weaken the seat belt webbing,
increasing risk of injury or death in an
accident.
Clean seat belt webbing only with mild
soap or detergent solution and rinse it
with lukewarm water, and dry the seat
belt webbing completely before retracting
it.

WARNING
WARNING
 IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO ALWAYS
WEAR YOUR SEAT BELT PROPERLY
EVEN WITH AN AIRBAG.
• Seat belts help keep the driver and pas-
sengers properly positioned. This
reduces the risk of injury in all collisions,
and reduces the risk of serious injuries or
death when the airbags inflate.
During sudden braking just before a col-
lision, an unrestrained or improperly
restrained driver or passengers can move
forward into direct contact with, or
within close proximity to, the airbag
when it begins to inflate.
The beginning stage of airbag inflation is
the most forceful and can cause serious
injuries or death if the occupant comes in
contact with the airbag at this time.
• Seat belts reduce the risk of injury in
rear impact collisions, and in lower-
speed frontal collisions because the air-
bags are not designed to inflate in those
situations.
• Seat belts reduce the risk of being
thrown from your vehicle in a collision or
rollover.
 IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO BE PROP-
ERLY SEATED.
