The front airbags MAY DEPLOY when...
The front airbags may deploy if the bottom of the vehicle suf-
fers a moderate to severe impact (undercarriage damage).
Examples of some typical conditions are shown in the illustra-
tion.
1- Collision with an elevated median/island or curb
2- Vehicle travels over a deep hole/pothole
3- Vehicle drives down a steep slope and hits the ground
Because the front airbags may deploy in certain types of unex-
pected impacts as shown in the illustration that can easily move
you out of position, it is important to always properly wear
your seat belts. Your seat belts will help keep you a safe dis-
tance from the steering wheel and instrument panel during the
initial stages of airbag deployment. The initial stage of airbag
inflation is the most forceful and can possibly cause serious or
fatal injuries if you contact it at this stage.
WARNING
!
● Do not attach anything to the steering wheel's pad-
ded cover, such as badges or accessories. It might
strike and injure an occupant if the airbag inflates.
● Do not set anything on, or attach anything to, the
instrument panel above the glove box. It might
strike and injure an occupant if the airbag inflates.
WARNING
!
● Do not attach accessories to, or put them in front of,
the windscreen. These objects could restrict the air-
bag inflation, or strike and injure an occupant if the
airbags inflate.
