belt system alone, in case of a frontal
impact of sufficient severity.
o The SRS is designed to deploy
the airbags only when an impact
is sufficiently severe and when
the impact angle is less than 30°
fromtheforwardlongitudinalaxis
of the vehicle and will not deploy
in side, rear or rollover impacts.
Additionally,theairbagswillonly
deploy once. Thus, seat belts
must be worn at all times.
o For maximum safety protection
in all types of crashes, all occu-
pantsincludingthedrivershould
always wear their seat belts
whether or not an airbag is also
provided at their seating posi-
tion to minimize the risk of se-
vere injury or death in the event
of a crash. Do not sit or lean
unnecessarilyclosetotheairbag
whilst the vehicle is in motion.
o The SRS airbag system must
deploy very rapidly to provide
protection in a crash. If an occu-
pant is out of position because
of not wearing a seat belt, the
airbag may forcefully contact the
occupant causing serious or fa-
tal injuries.
NOTE:
Be sure to read information about
the SRS on the labels provided on
the reverse side of the sun visor
and in the glove box.

WARNING:
o As its name implies, the SRS is
designed to work with, and be
supplemental to, the driver's and
the passenger's three point seat
belt systems and is not a substi-
tuteforthem.Thereforeyourseat
belts must be worn at all times
whilst the vehicle is in motion.
The airbags deploy only in cer-
tain frontal impact conditions se-
vere enough to likely cause sig-
nificant injury to the vehicle oc-
cupants.
