WARNING
MMSA3038
The front seat passenger’s air bag is
much larger than the driver’s air bag and
inflates with considerably more force. It
can seriously hurt or kill a passenger
who is not in the proper position and
wearing the safety belt properly. The
front passenger should always move
their seat as far back as practical and sit
well back in the seat. It is essential that
the front passenger always wear their
safety belt, even when mounting in a
parking lot or up a drive way into a
garage.

There is a very significant risk of serious
or fatal injuries to a child in a child
restraint if the right front passenger air
bag inflates. We also strongly recommend
that you do not put a front-facing child
restraint system in the front passenger
seat.
