Air Bag Warning Light
The purpose of the air bag warning light in your instru-
ment panel is to alert you of a potential problem with
your Air Bag – Supplemental Restraint System (SRS).
WARNING - Front Passengers
• NEVER use a child restraint in the front
seat. There is a very significant risk of seri-
ous or fatal injuries to a child in a child
restraint if the right front passenger air bag
inflates.
• In the front seat, a rear-facing child restraint
would be positioned too close to where the
air bags are stored and in the event an air
bag deploys, the air bag would impact the
rear-facing child restraint and cause serious
injuries or death.
• Failure to observe the instructions provided
with the child restraint system could
increase the risk and/or severity of injury in
an accident.
Have the system checked if:
• The light does not illuminate when you turn the
ignition ON.
• The light stays ON after the engine starts.
• The light comes ON or flashes while you are dri-
ving.
