What your air bag system does
The importance of using
safety belts
There are four very important reasons to
use safety belts even with an air bag
supplemental restraint system. They:
not do
Driver’s air bag and front passenger’s air
bag are designed to supplement the pro-
tection offered by the safety belt in cer-
tain frontal collisions. Likewise, side air
bag and curtain air bags are designed to
supplement the protection offered by the
safety belt in side collisions. Safety belts
are designed to reduce the injury of the
driver or passengers in case of impact or
collision. No safety belt or air bag system
can completely eliminate injuries that
may be caused in collisions or impacts.
To help reduce impact on driver or pas-
sengers in any collision, safety belts
must be correctly worn.
The air bag system is designed to sup-
plement the protection offered by the
safety belt system. IT IS NOT A SUB-
STITUTE FOR THE SAFETY BELT.

help keep you in the proper position
(away from the air bag) when it inflates.
•
reduce the risk of harm in rollover, side
impact (vehicles not equipped with
side and curtain air bags) or rear
impact collisions, because an air bag is
not designed to inflate in such situa-
tions and even a side curtain air bag is
designed to inflate only in certain side
impact collisions.

reduce the risk of harm in frontal or
side collisions which are not severe
enough to actuate the air bag supple-
mental restraint system.
reduce the risk of being ejected from
your vehicle.
