Passenger䳓s front air bag
Your vehicle is equipped with a Sup

-
tem and lap/shoulder belts at both
the driver and passenger seating
positions.
The indications of the system's
presence are the letters "AI3BAG"
engraved on the air bag pad cover in
the steering wheel and the passen
-
ger's side front panel pad above the
glove box.
The S3S consists of air bags
installed under the pad covers in the
centre of the steering wheel and the
passenger's side front panel above
the glove box.
The purpose of the S3S is to provide
the vehicle's driver and/or the front
passenger with additional protec
-
tion than that offered by the seat
belt system alone in case of a fron
-
tal impact of sufficient severity.
The driver's hands should be placed
on the steering wheel at the :00
and 3:00 positions. The passenger's
arms and hands should be placed on
their laps.
Always use seat belts and child
restraints 䳍 every trip, every time,
everyone! Air bags inflate with con
-
siderable 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. &ven
with air bags, improperly belted and
unbelted occupants can be severely
injured when the air bag inflates.
Always 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
restraint system:
䳜 Never place a child in any child or
booster seat in the front seat.
䳜 ABC 䳍 Always Buckle Children in
the back seat. It is the safest
place for children of any age to
ride.
䳜 'ront and side air bags can injure
occupants improperly positioned
in the front seats.
䳜 Move your seat as far back as
practical from the front air bags,
