NOTE: The front airbags are certified to the Federal
regulations that allow less forceful deployment.
The front airbags have a multistage inflator design. This
may allow the airbag to have different rates of inflation
that are based on collision severity and occupant size.
This vehicle may also be equipped with side airbags to
protect the driver, front, and rear passengers sitting next
to a window. If the vehicle is equipped with side airbags,
they are located above the side windows. The trim

NOTE: Airbag covers may not be obvious in the interior
trim; but they will open to allow airbag deployment.
