AIR BAG LABELS

An alert label on the front face of the
driver’s and passenger’s sun visor directs
you to read the warning label on the rear
face of each sun visor.

The warning label contains the following
statement:

!

WARNING:

EVEN WITH ADVANCED AIR BAGS

- Children can be killed or seriously
injured by the air bag.

- The back seat is the safest place for
children.

- Never put a rear-facing child seat in
the front.

- Always use seat belts and child
restraints.

- See Owners Manual for more
information about air bags.

DRIVER AIR BAG

!

WARNING:

The air bag is a supplementary
restraint system that provides
additional protection in a severe
impact only - it does not replace the
need to wear seat belts. For maximum
safety protection in all crash situations,
a seat belt must be worn.

Note: Provided front seat occupants are
correctly seated, with seat belts worn, the
air bag will give additional protection to
the chest and facial areas in the event of
an accident.

Both front air bags use a dual inflation
technology which means, if activated, the
air bags will deploy as appropriate for the
severity of frontal impact.

Air bag deployment

WARNING:

Activation of an air bag creates dust,
causing possible breathing difficulties
for asthma sufferers or other people
with respiratory problems. If an air bag
is activated, any occupant who suffers
from breathing difficulties should;
either leave the vehicle as quickly as
possible, or obtain fresh air by fully
opening the windows and doors.

Following inflation, some air bag
components are hot - do not touch
until they have cooled.
