and supplemental curtainside-impact air
bags inflate withgreat force. Ifyou and your
passengers areunrestrained, leaningfor-
ward, sitting sideways, orout ofposition in
any way, youand your passengers areat
greater riskofinjury ordeath inan accident.
. Donot allow anyone toplace theirhands,

impact airbags andsupplemental curtain
side-impact airbags onthe sides ofthe
seatback ofthe front seats ornear theside
roof rails. Donot allow anyone sittinginthe

their hands outofthe windows orlean
against thedoors. Someexamples ofdan-
gerous ridingpositions areshown inthe
