RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)
This Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) section
contains important information concerning the driv-
er’s and passenger’s supplemental front-impact air
bags, supplemental driver’s knee air bag (where fit-
ted), supplemental side-impact air bags (where fit-
ted), supplemental curtain side-impact air bags
(where fitted) and pre-tensioner seat belts (where
fitted).
Supplemental front-impact air bag
system
This system can help cushion the impact force to
the head and chest area of the driver and/or front
passenger in certain frontal collisions. The supple-
mental front-impact air bag is designed to inflate on
the front where the vehicle is impacted.
Supplemental driver’s knee air bag
system (where fitted)
This system can help cushion the impact force to
the knee area of the driver in certain frontal colli-
sions. The supplemental driver’s knee air bag is de-
signed to inflate on the front where the vehicle is
impacted.SSS0513Z SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT
SYSTEM (SRS) (where fitted)
Safety —seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system 1-29

Supplemental side-impact air bag
system (where fitted)
This system can help cushion the impact force to
the chest and pelvis area of the driver and front pas-
senger in certain side-impact collisions. The supple-
mental side-impact air bag is designed to inflate on
the side where the vehicle is impacted.
Supplemental curtain side-impact air
bag system (where fitted)
This system can help cushion the impact force to
the head of the driver and passengers in front seat-
ing positions and rear outboard seating positions
(where fitted) in certain side-impact collisions. The
supplemental curtain side-impact air bag is designed
to inflate on the side where the vehicle is impacted.
The SRS is designed to supplementthe accident
protection provided by the driver’s and passenger’s
seat belts and is notdesigned to substitutefor
them. The SRS can help save lives and reduce seri-
ous injuries. However, inflating air bags may cause
abrasions or other injuries. Air bags do not provide
protection to the lower body. Seat belts should al-
ways be correctly worn and the occupants should
always be seated asuitable distance away from the
steering wheel, instrument panel and door finishers.
(See “Seat belts” earlier in this section.) The air
bags inflate quickly in order to help protect the oc-
cupants. The force of the air bags inflating can in-
crease the risk of injury if the occupants are too
close to, or are against, the air bag modules during
inflation. The air bags will deflate quickly after de-
ployment. The SRS operates only when the ignition switch
is in the ON position.
When the ignition switch is in the ON position,
the SRS air bag warning light illuminates for
about
7seconds and then turns off. This indi-
cates that the SRS is operational. (See “Warning
lights, indicator lights and audible reminders” in
the “2. Instruments and controls” section.)
1-30 Safety —seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system

WARNING
• The supplemental front air bags ordinarily will
not inflate in the event of aside impact, rear
impact, rollover, or lower severity frontal col-
lision. Always wear your seat belts to help re-
duce the risk or severity of injury in various
kinds of accidents. •
The seat belts and the supplemental front-im-
pact air bags are most effective when you are
sitting well back and upright in the seat. The
front-impact air bags inflate with great force.
If you and your passengers are unrestrained,
leaning forward, sitting sideways, or out of
position in any way, you and your passengers
are at greater risk of injury or death in an acci-
dent. You and your passengers may also re-
ceive serious or fatal injuries from the supple- mental front-impact air bag if you are up
against it when it inflates. Always sit back against the seatback and as far away as prac-
tical from the steering wheel or instrument
panel. Always use the seat belts.
• Keep hands on the outside of the steering
wheel. Placing them inside the steering wheel
rim could increase the risk of injury if the
supplemental front air bag inflates. SSS0131AZ

•
Children may be severely injured or killed
when the air bags inflate if they are not prop-
erly restrained.
• Never install
arear-facing child restraint sys-
tem in the front seat. An inflating supplemen-
tal front-impact air bag could seriously injure
or kill your child. (See “Child restraints” ear-
lier in this section.) WARNING
• The supplemental side-impact air bags
(where fitted) and supplemental curtain side-
impact air bags (where fitted) ordinarily will
not inflate in the event of afront impact, rear
impact, rollover, or lower severity side colli-
sion. Always wear the seat belts to help re-
duce the risk or severity of injury in accidents. SSS0059AZ

•
The seat belts and the supplemental side-im-
pact air bags and supplemental curtain side-
impact air bags are most effective when you are sitting well back and upright in the seat.
The supplemental side-impact air bags and
supplemental curtain side-impact air bags in-
flate with great force. If you and your passen-
gers are unrestrained, leaning forward, sitting
sideways, or out of position in any way, you
and your passengers are at greater risk of
injury or death in an accident.
• Do not allow anyone to place their hands, legs
or face near the supplemental side-impact air
bags and supplemental curtain side-impact
air bags located on the sides of the seatback
of the front seats or near the side roof rails.
Do not allow anyone sitting in the front seats
or rear outboard seats to extend their hands
out of the windows or lean against the doors.
Some examples of dangerous riding positions
are shown in the illustrations.
• When sitting in the rear seats, do not hold
onto the seatback of the front seats. If the
supplemental side-impact air bags and
supplemental curtain side-impact air bags in-
flate, you may be seriously injured. Be espe-
cially careful with children, who should always
be properly restrained.
• Do not use seat covers on the front seatbacks.
They may interfere with the supplemental
side-impact air bag inflations. •
Do not attach the key with heavy objects, hard
objects or objects with sharp edges. This may
cause injury if the supplemental knee air bag
inflates.
Pre-tensioner seat belt system
(where fitted)
The pre-tensioner seat belt system may activate with the supplemental air bag system in certain types of
collisions. Working with the front seat belt retrac-
tors and anchors, it helps tighten the seat belt the
instant the vehicle becomes involved in certain types
of collisions, helping to restrain front seat occupants.
(See “Seat belts” earlier in this section.)

The BACK SEAT is the SAFEST place for children
aged 12 and under. Always use seat belts and
child restraints. For maximum safety protection
in all types of crashes, you must always wear
your safety belt. Do not sit or lean unnecessarily
close to the air bag. Do not place any objects
over the air bag or between the air bag and your-
self. If the air bag warning light stays on or is
flashing when the ignition is placed in the ON
position, go to an approved dealer or qualified
workshop. Air bags can only be removed or dis-
posed of by an approved dealer or qualified work-
shop.

belt systems serviced at the nearest approved dealer
or qualified workshop if any of the following condi-
tions occur:
• The SRS air bag warning light remains on after
approximately
7seconds. •
The SRS air bag warning light flashes intermit-
tently.
• The SRS air bag warning light does not illumi-
nate at all.
Under these conditions, the air bag and/or pre-
tensioner seat belt system may not operate prop-
erly. They must be checked and repaired. Contact
