Essential Safety Equipment

SRS Air Bags

If your vehicle is also equipped with a front passenger occupant classifi cation system, 
refer to the Front Passenger Occupant Classifi cation System (page  2-57 ) for
 details.

  If your vehicle is equipped with a front passenger occupant classifi cation system, the front 
passenger air bag deactivation indicator light illuminates for a specifi ed time after the 
ignition is switched ON.

  Small children must be protected by a child-restraint system as stipulated by law in every 
state and province. In certain states and provinces, larger children must use a child-restraint 
system (page  2-23 ).

  Carefully consider which child-restraint system is necessary for your child and follow 
the installation directions in this Owner's Manual as well as the child-restraint system 
manufacturer's instructions.

WARNING

  Seat belts must be worn in air bag equipped vehicles:

  Depending only on the air bags for protection during an accident is dangerous. Alone, 
air bags may not prevent serious injuries. The appropriate air bags can be expected to 
infl ate only in the fi rst accident, such as frontal, near frontal or side collisions or roll-over 
accidents that are at least moderate. Vehicle occupants should always wear seat belts.
    

  Children should not ride in the front passenger seat:

  Placing a child, 12 years or under, in the front seat is dangerous. The child could be hit 
by a deploying air bag and be seriously injured or even killed. A sleeping child is more 
likely to lean against the door and be hit by the side air bag in moderate collision to the 
front-passenger side of the vehicle. Whenever possible, always secure a child 12 years and 
under on the rear seats with an appropriate child-restraint system for the child's age and 
size.
