Front air bags will probably not inflate
65D237
They are not designed to inflate in rear
impacts, side impacts, rollovers or minor

Remember, since air bags deploy only one
time during an accident, seat belts are
needed to restrain occupants from further
movements during the accident.
Therefore, an air bag is NOT a substitute
for seat belts. To maximize your protection,
ALWAYS WEAR YOUR SEAT BELTS. Be
aware that no system can prevent all pos-
sible injuries that may occur in an accident.
Your vehicle has “dual stage” front air
bags, which adjust the air bag inflation
force according to crash severity. Also,
your vehicle has a front passenger sensing
system, which turns off the front passen-
ger’s air bag and seat belt pretensioner
under certain conditions.

WARNING
An air bag supplements, or adds to,
the crash protection offered by seat

seating position, to minimize the risk
of severe injury or death in the event
of a crash.
