1-4. SRS Air Bags
Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) Pre-
cautions
The front and side supplemental restraint systems (SRS) include dif-
ferent types of air bags. Please verify the different types of air bags
which are equipped on your vehicle by locating the “SRS AIRBAG”
location indicators. These indicators are visible in the area where the
air bags are installed.
The air bags are installed in the following locations:
• The steering wheel hub (driver air bag)
• The front passenger dashboard (front passenger air bag)
• The outboard sides of the front seatbacks (side air bags)
• The front and rear window pillars, and the roof edge along both
sides (curtain air bags)
Vehicles with the Front Passenger Occupant Classification System
have a sensor which detects an impending roll-over accident.
The air bag supplemental restraint systems are designed to provide
supplemental protection in certain situations so seat belts are always
important in the following ways:
Without seat belt usage, the air bags cannot provide adequate protec-
tion during an accident. Seat belt usage is necessary to:
• Keep the occupant from being thrown into an inflating air bag.
• Reduce the possibility of injuries during an accident that is not
designed for air bag inflation, such as rear impact.
• Reduce the possibility of injuries in frontal, near frontal or side colli-
sions or roll-over accidents that are not severe enough to activate
the air bags.
• Reduce the possibility of being thrown from your vehicle.
• Reduce the possibility of injuries to lower body and legs during an
accident because the air bags provide no protection to these parts
of the body.
• Hold the driver in a position which allows better control of the vehi-
cle.
