Your car also has side airbags to help
protect the upper torso of the driver
or a front seat passenger during a
moderate to severe side impact.
The most important things you need
to know about your airbags are:
They are designed to supplement
the seat belts.
Help keep you from being thrown
against the inside of the car and
against other occupants.
Keep you from being thrown out
of the car.
Help keep you in a good position
should the airbags ever deploy. A
good position reduces the risk of
injury from an inflating airbag, and
allows you to get the best
advantage from the airbag.
Of course, seat belts cannot
completely protect you in every
crash. But in most cases, seat belts
can reduce your risk of serious
injury.
Always wear
your seat belt, and make sure you
wear it properly.
Your car has a Supplemental
Restraint System with dual-stage,
dual-threshold front airbags to help
protect the heads and chests of the
driver and a front seat passenger
during a moderate to severe frontal
collision.
