Only on models equipped with sideairbags
If you ever have a moderate to
severe side impact, the sensors will
detect rapid deceleration and signal
the control unit to instantly inf late
either the driver’s or the passenger’s
side airbag.
To ensure that the passenger’s
advanced front airbag system will
work properly,
This includes:
A rear passenger pushing or
pulling on the back of the
passenger’s seat.
Moving the f ront seat f orcibly
back against cargo on the seat or
f loor behind it.
Hanging heavy items on the f ront
passenger seat, or placing heavy
items in the seat-back pocket.
Make sure the rear f loor mat is
hooked to the f loor mat anchor. If
not, the f loor mat will prevent the
seat operation and the sensors
may not work properly. Only one airbag will deploy during a side impact. If the impact is on the
passenger’s side, the passenger’s side airbag will deploy even if there
is no passenger.
To get the best protection f rom the
side airbags, front seat occupants
should wear their seat belts and sit
upright and well back in their seats.
The passenger’s side airbag has a
cutof f system designed to turn of f
the passenger’s side airbag if a child’s
head is in the airbag’s deployment
path (see page ).
If the side airbag of f indicator light
comes on, have the passenger sit
upright. Once the passenger is out of
the deployment path of the side
airbag, the system will turn the
airbag back on and the light will go
out.
A f ront seat passenger should not
use a cushion or other object as a
backrest. It may prevent the cutof f
system f rom working properly.

The SRS indicator light
alerts you to a potential
problem with your f ront airbags, side
airbags, side curtain airbags, f ront
seat belt tensioners, or the driver’s
seat position sensor and the f ront
passenger’s weight sensors (see
pages and ).
In a moderate to severe side impact,
sensors will detect rapid deceleration
and signal the control unit to
instantly inflate the side curtain
airbag on the driver’s or the
passenger’s side of the vehicle. If the
impact is on the passenger’s side, the
passenger’s side curtain airbag will
inflate even if there are no occupants
on that side of the vehicle.
To get the best protection f rom the
side curtain airbags, occupants
should wear their seat belts and sit
upright and well back in their seats.
Your vehicle is equipped with side
curtain airbags. These airbags are
stored in the f ront, center, and rear
pillars on both sides. The f ront and
rear pillars on both sides are marked
‘‘SIDE CURTAIN AIRBAG.’’ On models with side airbags, this
indicator will also alert you to a
potential problem with your side
airbags, the passenger’s side airbag
automatic cutoff system (see page
), or the side curtain airbags.
When you turn the ignition ON (II),
this indicator will light brief ly then
go out. This tells you that the system
is working properly. 26 31

The lef t or right turn signal indicator
blinks when you signal a lane change
or turn. If the indicators do not blink,
or if they blink rapidly, it usually
means one of the turn signal bulbs is
burned out (see pages and ).
Replace the bulb as soon as possible,
since other drivers cannot see that
you are signaling.
WhenyouturnontheHazard

indicators blink. All turn signals on
