Chevrolet Captiva Owner's Manual page 53

Warning
Because airbags inflate with great
force and faster than the blink of an
eye, anyone who is up against, or
very close to any airbag when it
inflates can be seriously injured or
killed. Do not sit unnecessarily close
to any airbag, as you would be if
sitting on the edge of the seat or
leaning forward. Safety belts help
keep you in position before and
during a crash. Always wear a safety
belt, even with airbags. The driver
should sit as far back as possible
while still maintaining control of the
vehicle.
Occupants should not lean on or
sleep against the door or side
windows in seating positions with
seat-mounted side impact airbags
and/or roof-rail airbags.
Warning
Children who are up against, or very
close to, any airbag when it inflates
can be seriously injured or killed.
Airbags plus lap-shoulder belts offer
protection for adults and older
children, but not for young children
and infants. Neither the vehicle's
safety belt system nor its airbag
system is designed for them. Young
children and infants need the
protection that a child restraint
system can provide. Always secure
children properly in the vehicle. To
read how, see Older Children on
page 2-30 or Infants and Young
Children on page 2-32.
Seats and Restraints 2-23
There is an airbag readiness light on
the instrument panel cluster, which
shows the airbag symbol.
The system checks the airbag
electrical system for malfunctions.
The light tells you if there is an
electrical problem. See Airbag
Readiness Light on page 4-16 for
more information.
