CAUTION
D
The SRS airbag system is designed
only as a supplement to the prima-
ry protection of the driver side and
front passenger side seat belt sys-
tems. The front seat occupants can
be killed or seriously injured by the
inflating airbags if they do not wear
the available seat belts properly.
During sudden braking just before
a collision, an unrestrained driver
or front passenger can move for-
ward into direct contact with or
close proximity to the airbag which
may then deploy during the colli-
sion. To ensure maximum protection
in an accident, the driver and all
passengers in the vehicle must
wear their seat belts properly. Wear-
ing a seat belt properly during an
accident reduces the chances of
death or serious injury or being
thrown out of the vehicle.
instructions and precautions con-
cerning the seat belt system, see
"Seat belts" on page 95 in this Sec-
tion.

Improperly seated and/or restrained
infants and children can be killed
or seriously injured by the deploy-
ing front airbag. An infant or child
who is too small to use a seat belt
should be properly secured using a
child restraint system.
strongly recommends that all in-
fants and children be placed in the
rear seat of the vehicle and proper-
ly restrained. The rear seat is the
safest for infants and children. For
instructions concerning the installa-
tion of a child restraint system, see
"Child restraint" on page 121 in this
Section.

Never install a rear−facing child re-
straint system on the front passen-

ous injury to the child.
