 If driver brakes the vehicleheavily in an urgent situa-
tions, occupants will be
thrown forward. If front pas-
sengers are not wearing the
safety belts, they will be
directly in front of the storage
compartment when inflation
occurs. In that situation, seri-
ous injury or death is possi-
ble.
 Never allow front passenger to put their hands or feet onthe instrument panel or put
their face close to the instru-
ment panel. The airbag will
impact the front passengerwhen it inflates.
(Continued)(Continued)
 Never allow children/old and feeble persons/pregnant
women to sit on the front pas-
senger’s seat. Do not put child
restraint system on the front
passenger’s seat either. They
may be seriously injured by
the airbag inflation when
airbag deploys.
 Do not put objects or stickers on the instrument panel. Do
not apply any accessory on
the front windshield glass ordo not install aftermarket mir-
rors or accessories on the fac-
tory installed rearview mirror.
These may interfere with the
deployment of airbag inflation
or could hit your body at high
speed and cause severe bodi-
ly injury and even death.WARNING
 The front seat passenger’s airbag is much larger than the
steering wheel airbag and
inflates with considerably
more force. It can seriously
hurt or kill a passenger who is
not in the proper position and
wearing the safety belt proper-
ly. The front passengers
should always move their seat
as far back as practical and sit
back in their seat.
 It is essential that the front passengers always wear their
safety belts, even when the
vehicle is moving in a parking
lot or up a driveway into
garage. (Continued)
