Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) - Airbag
This vehicle has airbags for the driver and passenger as a
supplement to the seat belt restraint systems. The driver’s
airbag is mounted in the steering wheel. The passenger
side airbag is mounted in the instrument panel, under a
cover marked SRS/AIRBAG. These airbags inflate in
higher speed impacts. They work with the instrument
panel knee bolsters and the seat belts to provide im-
proved protection for the driver and right front passen-
ger.
WARNING!
•
Relying on the airbags alone could lead to more
severe injuries in a collision. The airbags work
with your seat belt to restrain you properly. In
some collisions the airbags won’t deploy at all.
Wear your seat belts even though you have air-
bags.
•
Being too close to the steering wheel or instru-
ment panel during airbag deployment could cause
serious injury. Airbags need room to inflate. Sit
back, comfortably extending your arms to reach
the steering wheel or instrument panel.
The seat belts are designed to protect you in many types
of collisions. The airbags deploy only in frontal collisions
and will not deploy in collisions at slow speed. But even
