Airbag System

The vehicle has the following airbags:

. A frontal airbag for the driver

. A frontal airbag for the front outboard passenger

. A knee airbag for the driver

. A knee airbag for the front outboard passenger

. A seat-mounted side impact airbag for the driver

. A seat-mounted side impact airbag for the front outboard passenger

. A roof-rail airbag for the driver

and the passenger seated directly behind the driver

. A roof-rail airbag for the front outboard passenger and the

passenger seated directly behind the front outboard passenger

All vehicle airbags have the word

AIRBAG on the trim or on a label near the deployment opening.

For frontal airbags, the word AIRBAG is on the center of the steering wheel for the driver and on the instrument panel for the front outboard

passenger.

For knee airbags, the word AIRBAG is on the lower part of the instrument

panel.

For seat-mounted side impact airbags, the word AIRBAG is on the side of the seatback closest to the door.

For roof-rail airbags, the word AIRBAG is on the ceiling or trim.

Airbags are designed to supplement

the protection provided by seat belts. Even though today's airbags are also designed to help reduce the risk of

injury from the force of an inflating bag, all airbags must inflate very

quickly to do their job.

You can be severely injured or killed in a crash if you are not

wearing your seat belt, even with airbags. Airbags are designed to work with seat belts, not replace

them. Also, airbags are not designed to inflate in every crash. In some

Wearing your seat belt during a

crash helps reduce your chance of hitting things inside the vehicle or being ejected from it. Airbags are

“supplemental restraints” to the

seat belts. Everyone in the vehicle should wear a seat belt properly, whether or not there is an airbag for that person.
