Seat, seatbelt and SRS airbags
y
Do not sit or lean unnecessarily
close to either front door. The
SRS side airbag is stored in both
front seat seatbacks next to the
door, and it provides protection
by deploying rapidly (faster than
the blink of an eye) in the event of
a side impact collision. However,
the force of SRS side airbag de-
ployment may cause injuries if
your head or other parts of the
body are too close to the SRS side
airbag.

y
Since your vehicle is equipped
with SRS curtain airbags, do not
sit or lean unnecessarily close to
the front or rear door on either
side. The curtain airbag on each
side of the cabin is stored in the
roof side (between the front pillar
and a point over the rear seat),
and it provides protection by de-
ploying rapidly (faster than the
blink of an eye) in the event of a
side impact. However, the force of
its deployment may cause injuries
if your head is too close to it.

Do not rest your arm on either front
door or its internal trim. It could be
injured in the event of SRS side air-
bag deployment.
