Pontiac 2003 Aztek Owner's Manual page 67

Here are the most important things to know about the
air bag systems:
You can be severely injured or killed in a crash
if you aren't wearing your safety belt
-
even if
you have air bags. Wearing your safety belt
during a crash helps reduce your chance of
hitting things inside the vehicle or being
ejected from it. Air bags are designed to work
with safety belts but don't replace them.
Frontal air bags for the driver and right front
passenger are designed to work only in
moderate to severe crashes where the front of
your vehicle hits something. They aren't
designed to inflate at all in rollover, rear or
low-speed frontal crashes, or in many side
crashes. And, for some unrestrained
occupants, frontal air bags may provide less
protection in frontal crashes than more
forceful air bags have provided in the past.
CAUTION: (Continued)
The side impact air bags for the driver and
right front passenger are designed to inflate
only in moderate to severe crashes where
something hits the side of your vehicle. They
aren't designed to inflate in frontal, in rollover
or in rear crashes.
Everyone in your vehicle should wear a safety
belt properly
-
whether or not there's an air
bag for that person.
