WARNING!
 Relying on the air bags alonecould lead to more severe injuries
in a collision. The air bags work
with your seat belt to restrain you
properly. In some collisions, the
air bags won't deploy at all. Al-
ways wear your seat belts even
though you have air bags.
 Being too close to the steering wheel or instrument panel during
Advanced Front Air Bag deploy-
ment could cause serious injury,
including death. Air Bags need
room to inflate. Sit back, com-
fortably extending your arms to
reach the steering wheel or in-
strument panel.
 Seat-Mounted Side Air Bags (SAB) need room to inflate. Do
not lean against the door or win-
dow. Sit upright in the center of
the seat.
 In a collision, you and your pas- sengers can suffer much greater
injuries if you are not properly
buckled up. You can strike the

WARNING!(Continued)
interior of your vehicle or other
passengers, or you can be thrown
out of the vehicle. Always be sure
you and others in your vehicle are
buckled up properly.
Research has shown that seat belts
save lives, and they can reduce the
seriousness of injuries in a collision.
Some of the worst injuries happen
when people are thrown from the ve-
hicle. Seat belts reduce the possibility
of ejection and the risk of injury
caused by striking the inside of the
vehicle. Everyone in a motor vehicle
should be belted at all times.
LAP/SHOULDER BELTS
All seating positions in your vehicle
are equipped with lap/shoulder belts.
The belt webbing retractor is de-
signed to lock during very sudden
stops or collisions. This feature allows
the shoulder part of the belt to move
freely with you under normal condi-
tions. However, in a collision, the belt
will lock and reduce the risk of you
striking the inside of the vehicle or
being thrown out.
WARNING!
 Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and using a seat belt
properly.
 It is dangerous to ride in a cargo area, inside or outside of a ve-
hicle. In a collision, people riding
in these areas are more likely to
be seriously injured or killed.
Do not allow people to ride in any
area of your vehicle that is not
equipped with seats and seat belts. Wearing a seat belt incorrectly is dangerous. Seat belts are de-
signed to go around the large
bones of your body. These are the
strongest parts of your body and
can take the forces of a collision
the best.
 Wearing your belt in the wrong place could make your injuries in
a collision much worse. You
might suffer internal injuries, or
you could even slide out of part of
the belt. Follow these instructions
to wear your seat belt safely and
to keep your passengers safe, too.
