Observe the adjustment instructions on
page

sonal protection. <
The front airbags help protect the driver and
front passenger by responding to frontal

head and side airbags help provide protection in
the event of side impact. The relevant side air-
bag supports the side upper body area. The
head air bag supports the head.

dents, certain roll-over situations and rear-end
collisions.
Do not apply adhesive materials to the
cover panels of the airbags, cover them or
modify them in any other way. Do not attach
