Front airbags
63J259
Front airbags are designed to inflate in
severe frontal collisions when the ignition
switch is in “ON” position.
NOTE:
In a frontal angle collision, the side airbags
and side curtain airbags may inflate.
Front airbags are not designed to inflate in
rear impacts, side impacts, rollovers or
minor frontal collisions, since they would
offer no protection in those types of acci-
dents. Since an airbag deploys only one
time during an accident, seat belts are
needed to restrain occupants from further
movements during the accident.
WARNING
An airbag supplements or adds to the
collision protection offered by seat
belts. The driver and all passengers
must be properly restrained by fas-
tening seat belts at all times, whether
or not an airbag is mounted at their
seating position, to minimize the risk
of severe injury or death in the event
of a collision.
WARNING
NEVER use a rearward facing child
restraint on a seat protected by an
ACTIVE AIRBAG in front of it, DEATH
or SERIOUS INJURY to the CHILD
can occur.
