WARNING!
•Relying on the air bags alone could 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.Always 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 deployment could cause serious injury, including death.Air bags need
room to inflate.Sit back, comfortably extending your arms to reach the steering
wheel or instrument panel.
•Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflatable Curtains and Supplemental Seat-Mounted
Side Air Bags need room to inflate.Do not lean against the door or window.
Sit upright in the center of the seat.

Mounted Side Air Bag during deployment could cause you to be severely injured
or killed.
•Do not drive your vehicle after the air bags have deployed.If you are involved in
another collision, the air bags will not be in place to protect you.
•
After any collision, the vehicle should be taken to an authorized dealer immediately.
CHILD RESTRAINTS

in proper restraint systems.This is the law, and you can be prosecuted for ignoring it.
