SAFETY
||
WARNING
Keep the following points in mind with
•
respect to the OWS system. Failure to
follow these instructions could
adversely affect the system's function
and result in serious injury to the occu-
pant of the front passenger's seat.
The full weight of the front seat pas-
•
senger should always be on the seat
cushion. The passenger should never
lift him/herself off the seat cushion
using the armrest in the door or the
center console, by pressing the feet on
the floor, by sitting on the edge of the
seat cushion, or by pressing against
the backrest in a way that reduces
pressure on the seat cushion. This
could cause OWS to disable the front,
passenger's side airbag.

WARNING
Do not place any type of object on the
•
front passenger's seat in such a way
that jamming, pressing, or squeezing
occurs between the object and the
front seat, other than as a direct result
of the correct use of the Automatic
Locking Retractor/Emergency Locking
Retractor (ALR/ELR) seat belt.
No objects should be placed under the
•
front passenger's seat. This could inter-
fere with the OWS system's function.

Side airbags
The side airbags, on the driver's and passen-
ger sides, protect the chest and hip in a colli-
sion.
The side airbags are located in the front seats'
outer backrest frames and help protect the
driver and front seat passenger.
A collision of a sufficiently violent force will
trigger the sensors and one or more side air-
bags will inflate. The side airbags inflate
between the seat occupant and the door panel
to help cushion the initial impact of the colli-
sion. The airbag deflates when compressed by
the collision. The side airbags are normally
only deployed on the side of the vehicle
impacted by the collision.
