WARNING!
• Side Air Bags need room to inflate. Do not lean against the door or window.
Sit upright in the center of the seat.
• Being too close to the Side Air Bags during deployment could cause you to
be severely injured or killed.
• Relying on the Side Air Bags alone could lead to more severe injuries in a
collision. The Side Air Bags work with your seat belt to restrain you properly.
In some collisions, Side Air Bags won’t deploy at all. Always wear your seat
belt even though you have Side Air Bags.
• This vehicle is equipped with left and right Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflat-
able Curtains (SABICs). Do not stack luggage or other cargo up high enough
to block the deployment of the SABICs. The trim covering above the side
windows where the SABIC and its deployment path are located should re-
main free from any obstructions.
• This vehicle is equipped with SABICs. In order for the SABICs to work as
intended, do not install any accessory items in your vehicle which could alter
the roof. Do not add an aftermarket sunroof to your vehicle. Do not add roof
racks that require permanent attachments (bolts or screws) for installation on
the vehicle roof. Do not drill into the roof of the vehicle for any reason.
• Do not use accessory seat covers or place objects between you and the
Side Air Bags; the performance could be adversely affected and/or objects
could be pushed into you, causing serious injury.
CHILD RESTRAINTS
Children 12 years or younger should ride properly buckled up in a rear seat, if avail-
able. 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 chil-
dren ride in proper restraint systems. This is the law, and you can be prosecuted for
ignoring it.
NOTE:
• For additional information, refer to www.Seatcheck.org or call 1-866-
SEATCHECK.
• Canadian residents should refer to Transport Canada’s website for additional in-
formation:
