Seats & Safety System
The vehicles are equipped with a Supplemental Air Bag System for the driver's seat and
front passenger's seats.
The front air bags are designed to supplement the three-point seat belts. For these air
bags to provide protection, the seat belts must be worn at all times when driving.
You can be severely injured or killed in an accident if you are not wearing a seat belt. Air
bags are designed to supplement seat belts, but do not replace them. Also, air bags are
not designed to deploy in every collision. In some accidents, the seat belts are the only
restraint protecting you.
WARNING
AIR BAG SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
ALWAYS use seat belts and Child Restraint Systems - every trip, every time, everyone!
Even with air bags, you can be seriously injured or killed in a collision if you are improperly
belted or not wearing your seat belt when the air bag inflates.
NEVER place a child in any Child Restraint System or booster seat in the front passenger
seat, unless the air bag is deactivated.
An inflating air bag could forcefully strike the infant or child causing serious or fatal
injuries.
ABC - Always Buckle Children under age 13 in the back seat. It is the safest place for
children of any age to ride. If a child age 13 or older must be seated in the front seat, he
or she must be properly belted and the seat should be moved as far back as possible.
All occupants should sit upright with the seatback in an upright position, centered on the
seat cushion with their seat belt on, legs comfortably extended and their feet on the floor
until the vehicle is parked and the vehicle is turned off. If an occupant is out of position
during an accident, the rapidly deploying air bag may forcefully contact the occupant
causing serious or fatal injuries.
You and your passengers should never sit or lean unnecessarily close to the air bags or
lean against the door or center console.
Move your seat as far back as possible from front air bags, while still maintaining control
of the vehicle. The U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA)
recommends that drivers allow at least 10 inches (25 cm) between the center of the
steering wheel and the chest.
