Supplemental Side Air Bags
•ThisvehicleisequippedwithSupplementalDoor-IntegratedSideAirBagInflatable
Curtains (SABICs). The SABICs are located in the door trim below the side windows.
The trim covering the SABICs is labeled SRS AIRBAG.
•TheSABICsmayhelpreducetheriskofpartialorcompleteejectionofvehicle
occupants through side windows in certain side impact events.
•SABICsaredesignedtoactivateincertainsideimpacts.TheOccupantRestraint
Controller (“ORC”) determines whether the deployment of the SABIC in a particular
impact event is appropriate, based on the severity and type of collision. Vehicle damage
by itself is not a good indicator of whether or not SABICs should have deployed.
WARNING!
•RelyingontheSABICsalonecouldleadtomoresevereinjuriesinacollision.The
SABICs work with your seat belt to restrain you properly. In some collisions, SABICs
won’t deploy at all. Always wear your seat belt even though you have SABICs.

Bag Inflatable Curtains (SABICs). Do not stack luggage or other cargo up high
enough to block the deployment of the SABICs. The door trim below the side
windows where the SABIC and its deployment path are located, should remain free
from any obstructions.
CHILD RESTRAINTS
Children 12 years or younger should ride properly buckled up in a rear seat, if available.
According to crash statistics, children are safer when properly restrained in the rear seats
rather than in the front.
Every state in the United States and all Canadian provinces require that small children
ride in proper restraint systems. This is the law, and you can be prosecuted for ignoring it.
