Essential Safety Equipment

SRS Air Bags

  Do not attach objects on or around the area where a side air bag deploys:

  Attaching objects to the front seat in such a way as to cover the outboard side of the 
seat in any way is dangerous. In an accident the object could interfere with the side 
air bag, which infl ates from the outboard side of the front seats, impeding the added 
protection of the side air bag system or redirecting the air bag in a way that is dangerous. 
Furthermore, the bag could be cut open releasing the gas.
  Do not hang net bags, map pouches or backpacks with side straps on the front seats. 
Never use seat covers on the front seats. Always keep the side air bag modules in your 
front seats free to deploy in the event of a side collision.
  

  Do not attach objects on or around the area where a curtain air bag deploys:

  Attaching objects to the areas where the curtain air bag activates such as on the 
windshield glass, side door glass, front and rear window pillars and along the roof edge 
and assist grips is dangerous. In an accident the object could interfere with the curtain 
air bag, which infl ates from the front and rear window pillars and along the roof edge, 
impeding the added protection of the curtain air bag system or redirecting the air bag in 
a way that is dangerous. Furthermore, the bag could be cut open releasing the gas.
  Do not place hangers or any other objects on the assist grips. When hanging clothes, 
hang them on the coat hook directly. Always keep the curtain air bag modules free to 
deploy in the event of a side collision or roll-over accident.
  

  Do not touch the components of the supplemental restraint system after the air bags 
have infl ated:

  Touching the components of the supplemental restraint system after the air bags have 
infl ated is dangerous. Immediately after infl ation, they are very hot. You could get burned.
  

  Never install any front-end equipment to your vehicle:

  Installation of front-end equipment, such as frontal protection bar (kangaroo bar, bull 
bar, push bar, or other similar devices), snowplow, or winches, is dangerous. The air bag 
crash sensor system could be aff ected. This could cause air bags to infl ate unexpectedly, 
or it could prevent the air bags from infl ating during an accident. Front occupants could 
be seriously injured.
  

  Do not modify the suspension:

  Modifying the vehicle suspension is dangerous. If the vehicle's height or the suspension is 
modifi ed, the vehicle will be unable to accurately detect a collision or roll-over accident 
resulting in incorrect or unexpected air bag deployment and the possibility of serious 
injuries.
