Supplemental Restraint System (Srs) - Oldsmobile INTRIGUE 2000 Owner's Manual

Supplemental Restraint System (SRS)

This part explains the Supplemental Restraint System
(SRS) or air bag system.
Your vehicle has air bags
and another air bag for the right front passenger.
Frontal air bags are designed to help reduce the risk of
injury from the force of an inflating air bag. But these
air bags must inflate very quickly to do their job and
comply with federal regulations.
Here are the most important things to know about the
air bag system:
--
one air bag for the driver
CAUTION:
You can be severely injured or killed in a crash if
you aren't wearing your safety belt
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 "supplemental restraints" to the safety
belts. All air bags are designed to work with
safety belts, but don't replace them. Air bags 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, side or low
crashes. And, for unrestrained occupants, air
bags may provide less protection in frontal
crashes than more forceful air bags have
provided in the past. Everyone in your vehicle
should wear a safety belt properly
not there's an air bag for that person.
