WARNING:
o The space between the occupant and
the curtain airbag must never be
occupied by children, passengers or
pets. Occupants should never lean
out or have any parts of their body
protruding from the window while the
engine is running.
o Do not move the sun visor out to
cover the side window if there is an
item attached to it such as a garage
door remote control, pens, air fresh-
eners or the like. These objects could
cause injury if the Curtain Airbag is
deployed.
o Where sun blinds are fitted to the
rear doors, these must not obstruct
or impair the airbag in any way.
o Do not install any accessories or
children’s toys in the Curtain Airbag
deployment zones, as this may im-
pair the operation of the system or
throw parts of them into the vehicle
cabin causing injury to occupants if
the system is deployed.

Curtain Airbag (If Installed)
Curtain airbags are located along both
sides of the roof rails above the front and
rear doors. They are designed to help
protect the heads of the front seat occu-
pants and the rear outboard seat occu-
pants in certain side impact collisions.
The curtain airbags are designed to de-
ploy only during certain side impact col-
lisions, depending on the crash severity,
angle, speed and impact. The curtain
airbags are not designed to deploy in all
side impact situations, collisions from the
front or rear of the vehicle or in most
rollover situations.

WARNING:
o Before installing child restraints ,
always refer to “Child Restraint Sys-
tem” to ensure correct installation
and occupant protection is maxi-
mized.
o Make sure that the occupant does
not have any body parts (head, arms
& legs) protruding outside the re-
straining system. An inflating airbag
that strikes an infant child on the
head could cause serious injury.
o Ensure the opening for the Curtain
Airbag System remains unob-
structed at all times, so that the
airbags can inflate properly if needed.
