front seats. Placing items under
the front seats could interfere with
the operation of the supplemental

nents and wiring harnesses.

your lap. The infant or child could
be seriously injured or killed in the
event of a crash. All infants and chil-
dren should be properly restrained
in appropriate child safety seats or
seat belts in the rear seat.
Adding equipment to or modifying
your air bag-equipped vehicle
If you modify your vehicle by chang-
ing your vehicle's frame, bumper sys-
tem, front end or side sheet metal or
ride height, this may affect the oper-
ation of your vehicle's air bag sys-
tem.
Air bag warning label
Air bag warning labels are attached
to alert the passengers of the poten-
tial risk of the air bag system.
Note that these government warn-
ings focus on the risk of children. We
also want you to be aware of the
risks which adults are exposed to
that have been described in previous
pages.
