erly restrained in a child restraint or booster seat
that is appropriate for the size of the child.
WARNING!
• SABs need room to inflate. Do not lean
against the door or window. Sit upright in
the center of the seat.
• Being too close to the SABs during deploy-
ment could cause you to be severely in-
jured or killed.
• Relying on the SABs alone could lead to
more severe injuries in a collision. The
SABs work with your seat belt to restrain
you properly. In some collisions, SABs
won't deploy at all. Always wear your seat
belt even though you have SABs.
NOTE:
Air bag covers may not be obvious to you, but
they will open during air bag deployment.
If A Deployment Occurs
The Advanced Front Air Bags are designed to
deflate immediately after deployment.
NOTE:
Front and/or side air bags will not deploy in
all collisions. This does not mean some-
thing is wrong with the air bag system.
If you do have a collision, which deploys the air
bags, any or all of the following may occur:
• The air bag material may sometimes cause
abrasions and/or skin reddening to the occu-
pants as the air bags deploy and unfold. The
abrasions are similar to friction rope burns or
those you might get sliding along a carpet or
gymnasium floor. They are not caused by
contact with chemicals. They are not perma-
nent and normally heal quickly. However, if
you haven't healed significantly within a few
days, or if you have any blistering, see your
doctor immediately.
• As the air bags deflate, you may see some
smoke-like particles. The particles are a nor-
mal by-product of the process that generates
the non-toxic gas used for air bag inflation.
These airborne particles may irritate the skin,
eyes, nose, or throat. If you have skin or eye
irritation, rinse the area with cool water. For
nose or throat irritation, move to fresh air.
If the irritation continues, see your doctor.
If these particles settle on your clothing,
follow the garment manufacturer's instruc-
tions for cleaning.
Do not drive your vehicle after the air bags have
deployed. If you are involved in another colli-
sion, the air bags will not be in place to protect
you.
WARNING!
Deployed air bags and seat belt pretension-
ers cannot protect you in another collision.
Have the air bags, seat belt pretensioners,
and the seat belt retractor assemblies re-
placed by an authorized dealer immediately.
Also, have the Occupant Restraint Controller
System serviced as well.
