Safety features of your vehicle
Side impact air bag
The side impact air bags are
designed to deploy during certain
side-impact collisions, depending on
the crash severity, angle, speed and
point of impact. However, when side
deployment threshold is satisfied at
front-impact, side air bags may
deploy. The side impact air bags are
not designed to deploy in all side
impact situations.
The side impact air bags do not only
deploy on the side of the impact but
also on the opposite side.
The side and/or curtain airbags on
both sides of the vehicle may deploy
if a rollover or possible rollover is
detected.
WARNING
•
The side impact air bag is sup-
plemental to the driver's and
the passenger's seat belt sys-
tems and is not a substitute
for them. Therefore your seat
belts must be worn at all times
while the vehicle is in motion.
The air bags deploy only in
certain side impact conditions
severe enough to cause sig-
nificant injury to the vehicle
occupants.
For best protection from the
side impact air bag system
and to avoid being injured by
the deploying side impact air
bag, both front seat occupants
should sit in an upright posi-
tion with the seat belt properly
fastened. The driver's hands
should be placed on the steer-
ing wheel at the 9:00 and 3:00
positions. The passenger's
arms and hands should be
placed on their laps.

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 passen-
gers when they are seated on
seats equipped with side and/or
curtain air bags.

❈
The actual air bags in the vehicle may differ
from the illustration.
Your vehicle is equipped with a side
impact air bag in each front seat. The
purpose of the air bag is to provide the
vehicle's driver and/or the front pas-
senger with additional protection than
that offered by the seat belt alone.
