AIRBAG SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)

The area surrounding the instrument panel grab handle should
never be used for storage. The path of an inflating airbag must

be kept clear at all times.

The airbag supplemental restraint system (SRS) is designed to work in
conjunction with the safety belts to help protect the driver and front
outboard passenger from certain upper body injuries. The term
“supplemental restraint” means the airbags are intended as a supplement
to the safety belts. Airbags alone cannot protect as well as airbags plus
safety belts in impacts for which the airbags are designed to deploy, and
airbags do not offer any protection in crashes for which they do not
deploy.
