Side Airbags
Do not attach accessories on or near the side
airbags. They can interfere with the proper
operation of the airbags, or hurt someone if an
airbag inflates.
If the impact is on the passenger side, the airbag
deploys even if there is no passenger in the
passenger seat.
Do not cover or replace the front seat-back covers
without consulting a dealer.
Improperly replacing or covering front seat-back
covers can prevent your side airbags from properly
deploying during a side impact.
