SRS front-impact passenger air bag:
➀
The warning label
is located on the sun visor.
"NEVER use a rearward facing child restraint on a
seat protected by an ACTIVE AIR BAG in front of it,
DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY to the CHILD can oc-
cur."
The BACK SEAT is the SAFEST place for children
aged 12 and under. Always use seat belts and child
restraints. For maximum safety protection in all
types of crashes, you must always wear your
safety belt. Do not sit or lean unnecessarily close
to the air bag. Do not place any objects over the
air bag or between the air bag and yourself. If the
air bag warning light stays on or is flashing when
the ignition is placed in the ON position, go to an
approved dealer or qualified workshop. Air bags
can only be removed or disposed of by an ap-
proved dealer or qualified workshop.
Be sure to read the "AIR BAG LABEL" description at
the end of this manual.
In vehicles equipped with a front-impact passenger
air bag system, use a rear-facing child restraint sys-
tem only on the rear seats.
When installing a child restraint system in your ve-
hicle, always follow the child restraint system manu-
facturer's instructions for installation. For additional
information, see "Child restraints" earlier in this sec-
tion.
SRS air bag warning light
The supplemental air bag warning light, displaying
in the instrument panel, monitors the circuits
for the air bag systems, pre-tensioner seat belt sys-
tem (where fitted) and all related wiring.
When the ignition switch is in the "ON" position, the
SRS air bag warning light illuminates for about 7
seconds and then turns off. This indicates that the
SRS air bag systems are operational.
Have the air bag systems and/or pre-tensioner seat
belt systems serviced at the nearest approved
dealer or qualified workshop if any of the following
conditions occur:
•
The SRS air bag warning light remains on after
approximately 7 seconds.
•
The SRS air bag warning light flashes intermit-
tently.
•
The SRS air bag warning light does not illumi-
nate at all.
Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system
Under these conditions, the air bag and/or pre-ten-
sioner seat belt system may not operate properly.
They must be checked and repaired. Contact an ap-
proved dealer or qualified workshop immediately.
