Supplemental Inflatable Restraint
System
(Air
Bag)
This section explains the driver’s Supplemental
Inflatable Restraint (SIR) system, commonly referred to
as an air bag. Here are
the
most impdi-tant things to
know:
A
CAUTION:
Even with an air bag, if you’re
not
wearing a
safety belt and you’re
in
a crash, your injuries
may be much worse. Air bags are not designed
I
to inflate
in
rollovers or
in
rear, side or
low-speed frontal crashes. You need to wear
your safety belt to reduce the chance of hitting
things inside the vehicle or being ejected from
it. Always wear your safety belt, even with an air
bag.
