Seats, restraints 33
Warning
WARNING – EXTREME HAZARD!
Do not use a rearward facing
child restraint on a seat protected
by an airbag in front of it!
The child could be seriously
injured if the airbag inates, as
the child’s head would be very
close to the inating airbag.
Remember that it is safest for
children to be seated in the rear
seats. See Child restraints on
page 37.
Front airbag system
The front airbag system consists of
one airbag in the steering wheel and
one in the instrument panel on the
passenger side. These are identied
by the word AIRBAG.
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 if the
vehicle is hit from the rear or is
involved in a rollover. 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.
