WARNING
!
IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO BE PROPERLY
SEATED.
• A driver or front passenger sitting too close to the
steering wheel or instrument panel during airbag
deployment can be seriously injured or killed.
• Airbags inflate very quickly and with great force.
If the driver and front passenger are not properly
seated and restrained, the airbag may not provide
the proper protection, and can cause serious inju-
ries or death when it inflates.
• To reduce the risk to the driver of serious injury or death due to a deploying driver’s airbag, always
properly wear your seat belt and adjust the
driver’s seat as far back as possible, maintaining a
position that still allows the driver to have good
control of the steering wheel, brake, accelerator,
and other vehicle controls.
• To reduce the risk to the front passenger of serious
injury or death from a deploying passenger’s
airbag, make sure the passenger always wears the
seat belt properly, remains seated upright and all
the way back in the seat, and positions the seat as
far back as possible.
• Seat all infants and children in the rear seat, prop-
erly restrained in an appropriate child restraint
system.
WARNING
!
Airbags inflate very quickly and with great force.
Do not sit on the edge of the seat or sit with your
lower legs too close to the instrument panel, or lean
your head or chest close to the steering wheel or the
instrument panel.
Do not put your feet or legs on or against the instru-
ment panel.

When the impact sensors detect a sufficient front or side impact
to deploy the airbag(s), the appropriate airbag(s) will be
deployed.
When the airbag control unit detects rollover of the vehicle,
curtain airbags will be deployed.
When airbags deploy, some smoke is released accompanied by
a loud noise. The smoke is not harmful, but do not intentionally
inhale the smoke as it may cause temporary irritation to people
with respiratory problems.
An inflated airbag will deflate quickly, so you may not even
notice that the airbag was inflated.
Airbag inflation does not prevent the driver from seeing or
being able to steer the vehicle, and does not prevent people
from leaving the vehicle.
Event Data Recording
N00418600243
This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder (EDR).
The main purpose of an EDR is to record, in certain crash or
near crash-like situations, such as an airbag deployment or hit-
ting a road obstacle, data that will assist in understanding how
a vehicle’s systems performed.
The EDR is designed to record data related to vehicle dynam-
ics and safety systems for a short period of time, typically 30
seconds or less.
The EDR in this vehicle is designed to record such data as:
How various systems in your vehicle were operating;

Whether or not the driver and passenger safety belts were
buckled/fastened;

How far (if at all) the driver was depressing the accelera-
tor and/or brake pedal; and,

How fast the vehicle was traveling.
These data can help provide a better understanding of the cir-
cumstances in which crashes and injuries occur.
CAUTION
!
Airbags inflate very quickly and with great force. In
certain situations, contact with an inflating airbag
may cause small cuts, abrasions, and bruises.
