cr--hes where something
hits
the driver’s side
of your vehicle.
It
isn’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.
Bclrlr
frontal and side impact air bags inflate
with great force, faster than the blink of an
eye. If you’re too close to an inflating air bag,
as you would be if you were leaning forward,
it
could seriously injure you. Safety belts help
keep you in position for air bag inflation betore
and during a crash. Always wear your safety
belt, even with frontal air bags. The driver
should
sit
as far back as possible while
still
maintaining control of the vehicle, and should
iiot
lean
oil
the
boor.
Anyone who
is
up against, or very close to, any
air bag when
it
inflates can be seriously injured
or killed. Air bags plus lap-shoulder belts offer
the best protection for adults, but not for young
children and infants. Neither the vehicle’s safety
belt system nor
its
air bag system
is
designed
for them. Young children and infants need the
protection that a child restraint system can
provide. Always secure children properly
in
your vehicle.

read how, see the part of
this
manual called “Older Children’’ or “Infants and
Young Children”.
