Driver's and passenger's front
air bag
Your vehicle is equipped with a Supple‐
mental
Restraint (Air Bag) System and
lap/shoulder belts at both the driver
and passenger seating positions.
The indicators of the system's pres‐
ence are the letters "AIR BAG" located
on the air bag pad cover on the steering
wheel and the passenger's side front
panel pad above the glove box.
The SRS consists of air bags installed
under the pad covers in the center of
the steering wheel and the passenger's
side in the front panel above the glove
box.
The purpose of the SRS is to provide
the vehicle's driver and/or the front
passenger with additional protection
than that offered by the seat belt sys‐
tem alone in case of a frontal impact of
sufficient severity.
WARNING
Always use seat belts and child re‐
straints
– every trip, every time, ev‐
eryone! Air bags inflate with consid‐
erable force and in the blink of an
eye. Seat belts help keep occupants
in proper position to obtain maxi‐
mum benefit from the air bag. Even
with air bags, improperly and unbel‐
ted occupants can be severely in‐
jured when the air bag inflates. Al‐
ways follow the precautions about
seat belts, air bags and occupant
safety contained in this manual.
To reduce the chance of serious or
fatal injuries and receive the maxi‐
mum safety benefit from your re‐
straint system:
