Essential Safety Equipment
SRS Air Bags
Supplemental Restraint Systems (SRS) Precautions
Read this owner’s manual carefully to verify what air bags (driver-side air bag, passenger-
side air bag) are equipped in your vehicle.
The supplemental restraint systems (SRS) include 2 air bags.
They are located in:
•
•
The steering wheel
The passenger side dashboard
In a front-end or near-front end impact, the air bag supplemental restraint systems are
designed to provide only supplemental protection for the driver and passenger. Seat belts
must still be worn.
Without seat belt usage, the air bags cannot provide adequate protection during an accident.
Seat belt usage is necessary to:
•
•
Keep the passenger away from an inflating air bag.
Reduce the possibility of injuries during an accident that is not designed for air bag
inflation, such as roll-over or rear impact.
•
Reduce the possibility of injuries in frontal collisions that are not severe enough to
activate the air bags.
•
•
Reduce the possibility of being thrown from your vehicle.
Reduce the possibility of injuries to lower body and legs during an accident because the
air bags provide no protection to these parts.
•
Hold the driver in a position which allows better control of the vehicle.
Small children, those under 18 kg (40 lb), should be protected by a child-restraint system
(page 2-13).
We have provided a deactivation switch that will disable passenger-side air bag inflation.
Do not switch off the passenger-side air bag without reading the "Passenger-Side Air Bag
Deactivation Switch" (page 2-20).
