Here are the most important things to know about the
air bag systems:
You can be severely injured
or
killed
in
a crasn
if you aren’t wearing your safety belt
-
even if
you have air bags. Wearing your safety belt
during a crash helps reduce your chance of
hitting things inside the vehicle or being
ejected from
it.
Air bags are designed to work
with safety belts but don’t replace them.
Frontal air bags for the driver and right front
passenger are designed to work only
in
moderate to severe crashes where the front of
your vehicle hits something. They aren’t
designed to inflate at all
in
rollover, rear or
low-speed frontal crashes, or
in
many side
crashes..
And;
for
some
unrestrained
occupants, frontal air bags may provide less
protection
in
frontal crashes than more
forceful air bags have provided in the past.
CAUTION: (Continued)
The side ir..,-act -.r bags for the
~ river and
right front passenger are designed to inflate
only
in
moderate to severe crashes
wheresomething
hits
the side of your vehicle.
They aren’t designed to inflate
in
frontal,
in
rollover or
in
rear crashes.
Everyone in your vehicle should wear a safety
belt properly
-
whether or not there’s an air
bag for that person.
