• If it is necessary to modify the air bag system for persons with disabilities, contact your
authorized dealer.
• Refer to the Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details regarding the Supplemental
Restraint System (SRS).
Supplemental Knee Air Bags
This vehicle is equipped with a Supplemental Driver Knee Air Bag mounted in the instrument
panel below the steering column. The Supplemental Driver Knee Air Bag provides enhanced
protection during a frontal impact by working together with the seat belts, pretensioners, and
Advanced Front Air Bags.
• Relying on the air bags alone could lead to more severe injuries in a collision. The air bags
work with your seat belt to restrain you properly. In some collisions, the air bags won't
deploy at all. Always wear your seat belts even though you have air bags.
• Being too close to the steering wheel or instrument panel during Advanced Front Air Bag
deployment could cause serious injury, including death. Air bags need room to inflate. Sit
back, comfortably extending your arms to reach the steering wheel or instrument panel.
• No objects should be placed over or near the air bag on the instrument panel or steering
wheel because any such objects could cause harm if the vehicle is in a collision severe
enough to cause the air bag to inflate.
Supplemental Side Air Bags
• This vehicle is equipped with Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side Air Bags (SABs) located in
the outboard side of the front seats. The SABs are marked with a SRS AIRBAG or AIRBAG
label sewn into the outboard side of the seats.
• This vehicle is equipped with Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflatable Curtains (SABICs) located
above the side windows. The trim covering the SABICs is labeled SRS AIRBAG or AIRBAG.
The SABICs may help reduce the risk of partial or complete ejection of vehicle occupants
through side windows in certain side impact events.
• The SABICs and SABs ("Side Air Bags") are designed to activate in certain side impacts and
certain rollover events. The Occupant Restraint Controller ("ORC") determines whether the
deployment of the Side Air Bags in a particular side impact or rollover event is appropriate,
based on the severity and type of collision. Vehicle damage by itself is not a good indicator of
whether or not Side Air Bags should have deployed.
