not twisted. Check the engagement by trying to

Supplemental Restraint
System, Optional
The supplemental restraint system can consist of an
air bag and SPACE system, or an air bag only sys-
tem. Your vehicle may or may not have a supple-
mental restraint system.
Air Bag, Optional
The air bag, when used with seat belts, provides ad-
ditional protection to the driver in severe frontal colli-
sions. The operational readiness of the air bag sys-
tem is indicated by the supplemental restraint system
(SRS) indicator on the dash. The SRS indicator
comes on when the engine is started and then goes
off. The indicator will remain on if there is a problem
with the air bag system. The vehicle should be ser-
viced if the SRS indicator does not come on when
the engine is started or if the SRS indicator remains
on.
WARNING
Air bags are designed to inflate only in severe
frontal collisions. The driver and the passenger
should always wear seat belts. For maximum pro-
tection in a collision or rollover, always be in a
normal seated position with your back against
the seat back and your head upright. Fasten your
seat belt and ensure that it is properly positioned
on your body as described under the "Seat Belt
Operation" heading. Since the air bag inflates
with considerable speed and force, a proper seat
position will keep you a safe distance from the
inflating air bag.
Do not place objects on the steering wheel or be-
tween you and the steering wheel. Keep your
hands on the sides and lower portion of the
steering wheel. Any objects may cause harm dur-
ing an accident.
Failure to follow these instructions may result in
death or personal injury.
Air Bag Safety Guidelines
The air bag system contains components that use
combustible chemicals. Because these chemicals are
combustible, care must be taken when replacing or
handling system components.
