Air bags do not replace your seat belts;
they supplement the protection offered
by seat belts.
Air bags can help protect you in a
severe frontal collision and in certain
side impacts, but they do not provide
protection in any other kind of collision.
Always make sure you and your
passenger wear safety belts.
Warning: The forces of a deploy-
ing air bag can cause serious or
fatal injury to a child under age
13. A child under 13 must not
be a passenger in this vehicle,
unless the child is belted into an
appropriate, properly installed
BabySmart™-compatible child
seat, which will deactivate the

See Operator's Manual for addi-
tional warnings and information on
