To turn on the front passenger air bag:
1. Place the ignition switch in the “OFF” position.
2. Open the glove box and insert the key into the
front passenger air bag switch.
3. Push and turn the key to the ON position.
4. Place the ignition switch in the ON position. The
front passenger air bag status ON light
will
illuminate, and after a period of time, will then
turn off.
Supplemental side–impact air bag
system
The supplemental side air bags are located in the
outside of the seatback of the front seats.
The supplemental side-impact air bag system is de-
signed to inflate in higher severity side collisions,
although it may inflate if the forces in another type of
collision are similar to those of a higher severity side
impact. It may not inflate in certain side collisions.
Vehicle damage (or lack of it) is not always an indi-
cation of proper supplemental side-impact air bag
system operation.
The seat belts should be correctly worn and the
driver and passenger seated upright, and as far as
is practical, away from the side air bag. The side air
bags inflate quickly in order to help protect the front
occupants. Because of this, the force of the side air
bags inflating can increase the risk of injury if the
occupant is too close to, or is against, these air bag
modules during inflation. The side air bag will de-
flate quickly after the collision is over.
Supplemental side–impact curtain air
bag system (where fitted)
The supplemental side–impact curtain air bag is lo-
cated in the roof side trims.
The supplemental side–impact curtain air bag sys-
tem is designed to inflate in higher severity side col-
lisions, although it may inflate if the forces in another
type of collision are similar to those of a higher se-
verity side impact. It may not inflate in certain side
collisions. Vehicle damage (or lack of it) is not al-
ways an indication of proper supplemental curtain
side–impact air bag system operation.
The seat belts should be correctly worn and the rear
seat passengers should be seated as far away as
practical from the door finishers and side roof rails.
The curtain air bags inflate quickly in order to help
protect the front and rear occupants. Because of
this, the force of the curtain air bag inflating can
increase the risk of injury if the occupant is too close
to, or is against, these air bag modules during infla-
tion. The curtain air bag will deflate quickly after the
collision is over.
WARNING
•
Directly after inflation, several air bag system
components will be hot. Do not touch them;
you may severely burn yourself.
