SUPPLEMENTAL SIDE AIR BAGS
Your vehicle is equipped with two types of side air bags:
1. Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side Air Bags (SABs):
Located in the outboard side of the front seats. The
SABs are marked with a SRS AIRBAG or AIRBAG
label sewn into the outboard side of the seats.
(fig. 139)
The SABs may help to reduce the risk of occupant
injury during certain side impact and certain roll-
over events, in addition to the injury reduction
potential provided by the seat belts and body struc-
ture.
When the SAB deploys, it opens the seam on the
outboard side of the seatback’s trim cover. The
inflating SAB deploys through the seat seam into the
space between the occupant and the door. The SAB
moves at a very high speed and with such a high
force that it could injure you if you are not seated
properly, or if items are positioned in the area
where the SAB inflates. Children are at an even
greater risk of injury from a deploying air bag.
WARNING!
Do not use accessory seat covers or
place obj
ects between you and the Side
Air Bags; the performance could be adver sely
affected and/or objects could be pushed into you,
causing serious injury.
