Airbags
Your car
has
a Supplemental
Restraint System
(SRS)
with frontal
airbags to help protect the driver and
a passenger.
~
This
system also includes
~
an indicator light on the
instrument panel to alert you to a
possible problem with the system.
The
most important things you need
to know about your airbags are:
• Airbags do
not
replace
seat
belts.
The
seat belts are the occupants'
primary protection in all types of
collisions. Airbags supplement
seat belts
by
providing extra
protection for occupants' heads
and chests.
• Airbags
offer
no
protection in side
impacts, rear impacts, rollovers,
or
minor
collisions. Air bags are
designed to deploy only during a
moderate to severe frontal
collision.
Your
Car's
Safety Features
• Airbags can
pose
serious hazards.
To
do
their job, airbags must
inflate with tremendous force and
speed.
So
while airbags save lives,
they can cause serious injuries to
adults and larger children who are
not wearing seat belts, are not
wearing
them
properly, are sitting
too close to the airbag,
or
are not
sitting in a proper position. Infants
and small children are at an even
greater risk of injury or death.
What
you
should do: Always wear
your seat belt properly, and sit
upright and as far back as possible
from the steering wheel
or
dashboard.
