Your vehicle is equipped with a side air
bag in each front seat.
The purpose of the air bag is to provide
the vehicle's driver and/or the front
passenger with additional protection
than that offered by the seat belt
alone.
The side air bags are designed to de‐
ploy only during certain side impact col‐
lisions, depending on the crash severity,
angle, speed and point of impact. How‐
ever, when side deployment threshold
is satisfied at front-impact, side air
bags may deploy. The side air bags are
not designed to deploy in all side impact
or rollover situations.
The side air bags may deploy on the
side of the impact or on both side.
NOTICE
n if equipped with rollover sen‐
sor
• Also, both side of the side air bags
deploy in certain rollover situa‐
tions.
• The side air bag may deploy when
the rollover sensor detects the sit‐
uation as a rollover.
WARNING
Do not allow the passengers to lean
their heads or bodies onto doors, put
their arms on the doors, stretch
their arms out of the window, or
place objects between the doors and
passengers when they are seated on
seats equipped with side and/or cur‐
tain air bags.
WARNING
• The side air bag is supplemental to
the driver's and the passenger's
seat belt systems and is not a
substitute for them. Therefore
your seat belts must be worn at all
times while the vehicle is in mo‐
tion. The air bags deploy only in
certain side impact or rollover
*
conditions severe enough to cause
significant injury to the vehicle oc‐
cupants.

• For best protection from the side
air bag system and to avoid being
injured by the deploying side air
bag, both front seat occupants
should sit in an upright position
with the seat belt properly fas‐
tened. The driver's hands should
be placed on the steering wheel at
the 9:00 and 3:00 positions.
The passenger's arms and hands
should be placed on their laps.
• Do not use any accessory seat
covers.
• Use of seat covers could reduce or
prevent the effectiveness of the
system.
• Do not install any accessories on
the side or near the side air bag.
• Do not place any objects over the
air bag or between the air bag and
yourself.
• Do not place any objects (an um‐
brella, bag, etc.) between the front
door and the front seat. Such ob‐
jects may become dangerous pro‐
jectiles and cause injury if the sup‐
plemental side air bag inflates.
