•TheORCturnsontheAirBagWarningLightintheinstrumentpanelforapproximately
four to eight seconds for a self-check when the ignition switch is first turned to the
ON/RUN position. After the self-check, the Air Bag Warning Light will turn off. If the
ORC detects a malfunction in any part of the system, it turns on the Air Bag Warning
Light, either momentarily or continuously. A single chime will sound to alert you if the
light comes on again after initial startup.
•The ORC monitors the readiness of the electronic parts of the air bag system whenever the
ignition switch is in the START or ON/RUN position. If the ignition switch is in the OFF
position or in the ACC position, the air bag system is not on and the air bags will not inflate.
•If the Air Bag Warning Light in the instrument panel is not on during the four to eight
seconds when the ignition switch is first turned to the ON/RUN position, stays on, or turns
on while driving, have the vehicle serviced by an authorized service center immediately.
NOTE:
If the speedometer, tachometer, or any engine related gauges are not working, the
Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) may also be disabled. In this condition the air bags
may not be ready to inflate for your protection. Have an authorized dealer service the air
bag system immediately.

Supplemental Knee Air Bags
This vehicle is equipped with a Supplemental Driver Knee Air Bag mounted in the
instrument panel below the steering column. The Supplemental Driver Knee Air Bag
provides enhanced protection during a frontal impact by working together with the seat
belts, pretensioners, and Advanced Front Air Bags.
WARNING!
•Relyingontheairbagsalonecouldleadtomoresevereinjuriesinacollision.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.

AIRBAG or AIRBAG label sewn into the outboard side of the seats.
•ThisvehicleisequippedwithSupplementalSideAirBagInflatableCurtains(SABICs)
located above the side windows. The trim covering the SABICs is labeled SRS AIRBAG
or AIRBAG. The SABICs may help reduce the risk of partial or complete ejection of
vehicle occupants through side windows in certain side impact events.
•TheSABICsandSABs(“SideAirBags”)aredesignedtoactivateincertainside

determines whether the deployment of the Side Air Bags in a particular side impact or
rollover event is appropriate, based on the severity and type of collision. Vehicle damage
by itself is not a good indicator of whether or not Side Air Bags should have deployed.
WARNING!
•Side Air Bags need room to inflate. Do not lean against the door or window. Sit upright
in the center of the seat.
