Front air bags will not inflate
Front air bags will probably not inflate
Front air bags are not designed to inflate in
rear impacts, side impacts, rollovers or
minor frontal collisions, since they would
offer no protection in those types of acci-
dents. Remember, since air bags deploy
only one time during an accident, seat
belts are needed to restrain occupants
from further movements during the acci-
dent.
Therefore, an air bag is NOT a substitute
for seat belts. To maximize your protection,
ALWAYS WEAR YOUR SEAT BELTS. Be
aware that no system can prevent all pos-
sible injuries that may occur in an accident.

WARNING
An air bag supplements, or adds to,
the crash protection offered by seat
belts. The driver and all passengers
must be properly restrained by wear-
ing seat belts at all times, whether or
not air bags are mounted at their
seating position, to minimize the risk
of severe injury or death in the event
of a crash.
Your vehicle has "dual stage" front air
bags, which adjust the air bag inflation
force according to crash severity, driver's
seat fore/aft position and whether or not
65D237
the front passenger's seat belt is fastened.
Also, your vehicle has a front passenger
sensing system, which turns off the front
passenger's front air bag and seat belt pre-
tensioner under certain conditions.
