1Side Curtain Airbags
The side curtain airbags are most effective when an
occupant is wearing their seat belt properly and
sitting upright, well back in their seat.
Do not attach any objects to the side windows or roof
pillars as they can interfere with the proper operation
of the side curtain airbags.
Do not put a coat hanger or hard objects on a coat
hook. This could result in injuries if your side curtain
airbag inflates.
