Do not drive your vehicle after the air bags have deployed. If you are involved in
another collision, the air bags will not be in place to protect you.
If it is necessary to modify the air bag system for persons with disabilities, contact
your authorized dealer.
Refer to the Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details regarding the Supple-
mental Restraint System (SRS).
WARNING!
• Relying on the air bags alone could lead to more severe injuries in a collision.
The air bags work with your seat belt to restrain you properly. In some collisions,
the air bags won't deploy at all. Always wear your seat belts even though you have
air bags.
• Being too close to the steering wheel or instrument panel during Advanced Front
Air Bag deployment could cause serious injury, including death. Air bags need
room to inflate. Sit back, comfortably extending your arms to reach the steering
wheel or instrument panel.
• No objects should be placed over or near the air bag on the instrument panel or
steering wheel because any such objects could cause harm if the vehicle is in a
collision severe enough to cause the air bag to inflate.
Supplemental Side Air Bags — If Equipped
• This vehicle may be equipped with Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side Air Bags
(SABs) located in the outboard side of the front seats. The SABs are marked with
a SRS AIRBAG or AIRBAG label sewn into the outboard side of the seats.
• This vehicle may be equipped with Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflatable Curtains
(SABICs) located above the side windows. The trim covering the SABICs is labeled
SRS AIRBAG or AIRBAG. The SABICs may help reduce the risk of partial or
complete ejection of vehicle occupants through side windows in certain side
impact events.
• The SABICs and SABs (“Side Air Bags”) are designed to activate in certain side
impacts and certain rollover events (if equipped with Side Air Bags). The
Occupant Restraint Controller (“ORC”) determines whether the deployment of the
Side Air Bags in a particular side impact or rollover event (if equipped with Side
Air Bags) is appropriate, based on the severity and type of collision. Vehicle
damage by itself is not a good indicator of whether or not Side Air Bags should
have deployed.
