Replacing seat belts
after a crash
Warning
It is essential to replace the
entire assembly after it has been
worn in a severe impact, even if
damage to the assembly is not
obvious.
Airbag system
Warning
Airbags are part of the
Supplemental Restraint System
(SRS) as they assist, but do not
replace seat belts. Airbags do not
deploy in every accident. Various
factors dictate whether they
deploy including speed, angle of
collision and object hit. Airbags
are not designed to inate in all
collisions. Seat belts must be
worn by all passengers whenever
the vehicle is moving.
Airbags inate with great force. If
you are too close to an inating
airbag it may cause injury. Seat
belts help keep you in position for
airbag ination in the event of a
collision.
Front airbag system
The front airbag system consists of
one airbag in the steering wheel,
and one in the dashboard on the
passenger side. These are identied
by the word AIRBAG.
A label is attached under the sun
visor on the passenger side.
