Side air bags and side curtain air bags are
designed to inflate only in severe side
impact collisions. They are not designed to
inflate in frontal or rear collisions, rollovers
or minor side collisions, since they would
offer no protection in those types of acci-
dents. Only the side air bag and side cur-
tain air bag on the side of the vehicle that
is struck will inflate. Remember, since an
air bag deploys only one time during an
accident, seat belts are needed to restrain
occupants from further movements during
the accident.
Therefore, an air bag is NOT a substitute
for seat belts. To maximize your protection,

sible injuries that may occur in an accident.
