44 Seats, restraints
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 infl ate 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 infl ate with great force. If
you are too close to an infl ating
airbag it may cause injury.
Seat belts help keep you in
position for airbag infl ation in the
event of a collision.
Front airbag system

airbag in the steering wheel, and one
in the dashboard on the passenger
side. These are identifi ed by the
word AIRBAG.
Warning
The horn pad must not be
covered with adhesive or any

The driver should adjust the seat

a passenger airbag is fi tted.
Warning
Do not place any objects on or
over the dashboard or between
an airbag and yourself.
Do not hang anything from the
sun visor or mirror.
Passengers must not rest their
feet on the dashboard.
