Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) 01

Front airbags
G018665
The front airbag systemThe front airbags supplement the three-point
seat belts. For these airbags to provide the
protection intended, seat belts must be worn
at all times.
The front airbag system includes gas genera-
tors surrounded by the airbags, and decelera-
tion sensors that activate the gas generators,
causing the airbags to be inflated with nitrogen
gas.
Location of the passenger's side front airbag
As the movement of the seats' occupants com-
presses the airbags, some of the gas is expel-
led at a controlled rate to provide better cush-
ioning. Both seat belt pretensioners also
deploy, minimizing seat belt slack. The entire
process, including inflation and deflation of the
airbags, takes approximately one fifth of a sec-
ond.
The location of the front airbags is indicated by
SRS AIRBAG embossed on the steering wheel
pad and above the glove compartment, and by
decals on both sun visors and on the front and
far right side of the dash.
The driver's side front airbag is folded and
located in the steering wheel hub.The passenger's side front airbag is folded
behind a panel located above the glove com-
partment.
WARNING
•The airbags in the vehicle are designed
to be a SUPPLEMENT to–not a replace-
ment for–the three-point seat belts. For
maximum protection, wear seat belts at
all times. Be aware that no system can
prevent all possible injuries that may
occur in an accident.
•Never drive a vehicle with a steering
wheel-mounted airbag with your hands
on the steering wheel pad/airbag hous-
ing.
•The front airbags are designed to help
prevent serious injury. Deployment
occurs very quickly and with consider-
able force. During normal deployment
and depending on variables such as
seating position, one may experience
abrasions, bruises, swellings, or other
injuries as a result from deployment of
one or both of the airbags.
•When installing any accessory equip-
ment, make sure that the front airbag
system is not damaged. Any interfer-
ence in the system could cause mal-
function.

01 Safety
Whiplash Protection System – WHIPS 01
32
WARNING
•Boxes, suitcases, etc. wedged behind
the front seats could impede the func-
tion of the WHIPS system.
•If the rear seat backrests are folded
down, cargo must be secured to pre-
vent it from sliding forward against the
front seat backrests in the event of a
collision from the rear. This could inter-
fere with the action of the WHIPS sys-
tem.
G018567
WARNING
Any contact between the front seat backr-
ests and the folded rear seat or a rear-facing
child seat could impede the function of the
WHIPS system. If the rear seat is folded
down, the occupied front seats must be
adjusted forward so that they do not touch
the folded rear seat.

ward as comfort and control allow.
•Check that the seat is securely locked
into position after adjusting.
Folding the front seat backrest
The front passenger seat backrest can be
folded to a horizontal position to make room for
a long load. Fold the backrest as follows:
Move the seat as far back as possible.
Adjust the backrest to an upright position.
Lift the catches (3 in the inset illustration)
on the rear of the backrest.
Without releasing the catches, push the
backrest forward.
Move the seat as far forward as possible
so that the head restraint slides under the
glove compartment.
WARNING

vent injury to occupants. Secure the load to
help prevent shifting during sudden stops.

85 Rear seats
Folding down the rear seat backrests
The rear seat backrests can be folded down
together, or separately, to make it easier to
transport long objects.
1. Pull the release control handle(s).
2. Fold the backrest forward. Adjust the cen-
ter seat head restraint if necessary.
NOTE
The outboard head restraints must be
folded up (in the upright position) before
lowering the backrests.
WARNING
•Keep vehicle doors and trunk locked
and keep keys out of a child’s reach.
Unsupervised children could lock them-
selves in an open trunk and risk injury.
Children should be taught not to play in
vehicles.
•On hot days, the temperature in the
trunk or vehicle interior can rise very
quickly. Exposure of people to these
high temperatures for even a short
period of time can cause heat-related
injury or death. Small children are par-
ticularly at risk.
WARNING
•When the backrest(s) are returned to the
upright position, check that it is properly
locked in place. The red indicators
should not be visible.
•Return the outboard head restraints to
the upright position.
•Long loads should always be securely
anchored to help avoid injury in the
event of a sudden stop.
•Always turn the engine off and apply the
parking brake when loading/unloading
the vehicle.
•Place the transmission in the Park (P)
position to help prevent inadvertent
movement of the gear selector.
•On hot days, the temperature in the
vehicle interior can rise very quickly.
Exposure of people to these high tem-
peratures for even a short period of time
can cause heat-related injury or death.
Small children are particularly at risk.
