3 56
Your vehicle is equipped with a side air
bag in each front and outboard rear
seat. The purpose of the air bag is to
provide the vehicle's driver and/or the
front and outboard rear passengers
with additional protection than that
offered by the seat belt alone.
• The side air bags are designed to
deploy during certain side-impact
collisions, depending on the crash
OKH032056
severity, angle, speed and point of
impact.
• The side air bags are not designed
to deploy in all side impact.
WARNING
Do not allow the passengers to
lean their heads or bodies onto
OKH032081
doors, put their arms on the
doors, stretch their arms out of
the window, or place objects
between the doors and passen-
gers when they are seated on
seats equipped with side and/or
curtain air bags.
OKH032089
WARNING
• The side air bag is supplemen-
tal to the driver's and the pas-
sengers seat belt systems and
is not a substitute for them.
Therefore your seat belts must
be worn at all times while the
vehicle is in motion. The air
bags deploy only in certain
side impact conditions severe
enough to cause significant
injury to the vehicle occupants.
• For best protection from the
side air bag system and to
avoid being injured by the
deploying side air bag, both
front and all rear (if equipped)
seat occupants should sit in an
upright position with the seat
belt properly fastened. The dri-
ver's hands should be placed
on the steering wheel at the
9:00 and 3:00 positions. The
passenger' arms and hands
should be placed on their laps.
