WARNING:
o Sitting improperly or out of position
can cause occupants to be shifted
too close to a deploying airbag, strike
the interior structure or be thrown
from the vehicle resulting in serious
injury or death.
o Always sit upright with the seatback
in an upright position, centered on
the seat cushion with your seat belt
on, legs comfortably extended and
your feet on the floor. oKeep occupants away from the airbag
covers. All occupants should sit up-
right, fully back in their seats with their
seat belts on and their feet on the floor.
If occupants are too close to the airbag
covers, they could be injured if the
airbags inflate.
oDo not attach or place objects on or
near the airbag covers. Any object
attached to or placed on the front or
side impact airbag covers could inter-
fere with the proper operation of the
airbags.
oDo not modify the front seats. Modi-
fication of the front seats could inter-
fere with the operation of the supple-
mental restraint system sensing com-
ponents or side impact airbags.
oDo not place items under the front
seats. Placing items under the front
seats could interfere with the opera-
tion of the supplemental restraint sys-
tem sensing components and wiring
harnesses.
oNever hold an infant or child on your
lap. The infant or child could be seri-
ously injured or killed in the event of a
crash. All infants and children should
be properly restrained in appropriate
child safety seats or seat belts in the
rear seat.
Adding Equipment to or Modifying
