SUPPLEMENTARY
RESTRAINT SYSTEM
SRS AIR BAG
Description
The front and side Supplementary
Restraint Systems (SRS) include
different types of Air Bags.
Note: Please verify which kinds of Air
Bags are equipped on your vehicle by
locating the “SRS AIR BAG” 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 passenger dashboard
(Passenger Air Bag)
The outer sides of the seat backs
(Side Air Bags)
This vehicle has front air bags and
lap/shoulder belts for both the driver
and front passenger. The front air bags
are a supplement to the seat belt
restraint systems.
The Air Bag supplementary restraint
systems are designed to provide
supplementary protection in certain
situations so seat belts are always
important in the following ways.
Without seat belt usage, the Air Bags
cannot provide adequate protection
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 roll-over or
rear impact.
Reduce the possibility of injuries in
frontal, near frontal or side collisions
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 vehicle.
Warning!
In order for the Side Air Bags to work as
intended, do not install any accessory
items in your vehicle which could alter the
roof. Do not add an aftermarket sunroof to
your vehicle. Do not add roof racks that
require permanent attachments (bolts or
screws) for installation on the vehicle roof.
Do not drill into the roof of the vehicle for
any reason.
If your vehicle is also equipped with
a passenger occupant classification
system, refer to the “Passenger
Occupant Classification System”
paragraph for further information.
If your vehicle is equipped with a
passenger occupant classification
system, the passenger Air Bag
deactivation indicator light illuminates
for a specified time after the ignition has
been placed in the ON position.
Small children must be protected by a
child-restraint system as stipulated by
law in every state and province. In
certain states and provinces, larger
children must use a child-restraint
system. Carefully consider which
child-restraint system is necessary for
your child and follow the installation
directions in this Owner's Manual as
well as the child-restraint system
manufacturer's instructions.
