WARNING
Front seat-mounted side-impact
supplemental air bags, roof-
mounted curtain side-impact and
rollover supplemental air bag (Coupe
models) or door-mounted curtain
side-impact supplemental air bag
(Roadster models):
.The side air bags ordinarily will
not inflate in the event of a front
impact, rear impact, rollover, or
lower severity side collision. Al-
ways wear your seat belts to help
reduce the risk or severity of injury in various kinds of acci-
dents.
. The curtain air bags ordinarily will
not inflate in the event of a front
impact, rear impact, rollover
(Coupe models) or lower severity
side collision. Always wear your
seat belts to help reduce the risk
or severity of injury in various
kinds of accidents.
. The seat belts, side air bags and
curtain air bags are most effec-
tive when you are sitting well
back and upright in the seat. The
side air bag and curtain air bag
inflate with great force. Do not
allow anyone to place their hand,
leg or face near the side air bag
on the side of the seatback of the
front seat or near the side roof
rails (Coupe models)/door trim
(Roadster models). Do not allow
anyone sitting in the front seats
to extend their hand out of the
window or lean against the door.
Some examples of dangerous
riding positions are shown in the
previous illustrations.
. Do not use seat covers on the
front seatbacks. They may inter-
