Mere
are
the
most
important
things
to
know
about
the
air
bag
system:
You
can be severely injured or killed
in
a
crash
if
you aren’t wearing your safety belt
--
even
if
you
have
an
air
bag. Wearing your safety belt during
a
crash helps reduce your chance of
hitting
things
inside the vehicle
or
being ejected
from it.
The
air
bag
is
only
a
%upplemental
restraint,’’
That
is,
it
works with safety belts but doesn’t replace them,
Air
,bags
are designed
to
work
only
in
moderate to
severe
crashes
where
the
front
of
your
vehicle
hits
something. They aren’t designed to inflate
at
dl
in
rollover,
rear,
side
or
low-speed frontal crashes.
Everyone
in
your vehicle, including
the
driver,
should wear
a
safety belt properly
-
whether or
not there’s
an
air
bag for that person.
I
Air
bags inflate with great force, faster than the
blink
of
an
eye.
If
you’re too close to
an
inflating
air bag,,it could seriously injure you. Safety belts
help keep you in position for an
air
bag inflation
in a crash. Always wear your safety belt, even
with
an
air
bag. The
driver
should
sit
as
far
back
as
possible while still maintaining control
of
the vehicle.
I
/II
CAUTION:
An inflating air bag can seriously injure small
children. Always secure children properly in your
vehicle.
To
read
how,
see the part of this manual
called “Children” and the caution label
on
the
right front passenger’s safety belt.
