Safety system of your vehicle
Curtain air bag
Curtain air bags are located along
both sides of the roof rails above the
front and rear doors.
They are designed to help protect
the passengers' heads in the front
and the rear seats (excluding the
rear center seat) in a certain side
impact collision.
The curtain air bags are designed to
deploy only in a certain side-impact
collision, depending on an impact
severity, an angle, a speed and a
direction. The curtain air bags are not
designed to deploy in all side impact
situations, a frontal/rear collision or
most rollovers.

• In order to get best protection
from the side and curtain air
bags, occupants of the front
and rear seats (excluding the
rear center seat) should sit in
an upright position with the
seat belts properly fastened.
Importantly, children should
sit in a proper child restraint
in a rear seat.
• When a child is seated in a
OVI035084N
rear seat, the child must be
seated in a proper child
restraint. Make sure to install
a child restraint system as far
away from a door as possible,
and secure the child restraint
system in a locked position.
• Do not allow the occupants to
lean their heads or bodies
onto doors, to put their arms
on the doors, to stretch their
arms out of the window, or to
OVI035074N
place objects between the
doors and passengers, when
occupying
equipped with side and/or
curtain air bags.
• Never attempt to modify or
repair any components of the
side curtain air bag system.
This should be done only by
an authorized EQUUS dealer.
Failure to follow the above
instructions may result in injury
or death in an accident.
