Side Airbags

The side airbags help to protect the torso and pelvis of the driver or a front
passenger during a moderate-to-severe side impact.
The side airbags are especially hazardous if a child is sitting in the front seat.

Do not let the front passenger lean sideways with
their head in the deployment path of the side airbag.
An inflating side airbag can strike with strong force
and seriously injure the passenger.
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.
