CAUTION
!●
Airbags inflate at an extremely rapid speed. In cer- tain situations, contact wi
th inflating airbags can
result in abrasions, light cuts, bruises, and the like.WARNING
!●
IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO BE PROPERLY SEATED. A driver or front passenger too close to the steeringwheel or instrument panel during airbag deploy- ment can be killed or seriously injured. Airbags inflate very fast
, and with great force.
If the driver and passengers are not properly seated and restrained, the airbags may not protect you properly, and could cause
serious or fatal injuries
when it inflates.
WARNING
!●
Do not sit on the edge of the seat, or lean head or chest close to the steering wheel or instrument panel.Do not put feet or legs on
or against the instrument
panel.
●
Place all infants and small
children in the rear seat
and properly restrained using an appropriate child restraint system. The rear seat is the safest
for infants and children.

OFF switch.

Driver’s and passenger’s front airbag system
E00407400372
The driver’s airbag is located
under the padded cover in the
middle of the steering wheel. Th
e front passenger’s airbag is
contained in the instrument panel above the glove box. The driver’s airbag inflates at
two different rates according to
the severity of the impact. The front passenger’s airbag de
ploys at the same time as the
driver’s airbag, even if the passe
nger seat is not occupied, and
inflates at two different rates
according to the severity of the
impact.

The front airbags MAY DEPLOY when...The front airbags may deploy if the bottom of the vehicle suf- fers a moderate to severe impact (undercarriage damage). Examples of some typical cond
itions are shown in the illustra-
tion. Because the front airbags may de
ploy in certain types of unex-
pected impacts as shown in the
illustration, an
d because these
impacts can easily move you out of position, it is important to always properly wear your seat
belts. Your seat belts will help
you to keep a safe distance from
the steering wh
eel and instru-
ment panel during the initial stages of airbag deployment. The initial stage of airbag inflation
is the most for
ceful one and can
possibly cause serious or fatal injuries if you contact it at this stage.1- Collision with an elevated median/island or kerb 2- Vehicle travels over a deep hole/pothole 3- Vehicle drives down a steep slope and hits the ground
WARNING
!●
Do not attach anything to
the steering wheel padded
cover, such as trim materi
al, badges, etc. It might
strike and injure an occupa
nt if the airbag inflates.
●
Do not set anything on, or attach anything to, the instrument panel above the glove box. It mightstrike and injure an occupa
nt if the airbag inflates.
WARNING
!●
Do not attach accessories to, or put them in front of, the windscreen. These object
s could restrict the air-
bag inflation, or strike and
injure an occupant if the
airbag inflates.
