OCCUPANT RESTRAINTS
Some of the most important safety features in your
vehicle are the restraint systems:
• Three-point lap and shoulder belts for the driver and
all passengers
• Front seat belts may incorporate pretensioners that
may enhance occupant protection by managing occu-
pant energy during an impact event
• Advanced Front Air Bags for driver and front passen-
ger
• Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflatable Curtains
(SABIC) — if equipped
• Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side Air Bags (SAB) — if
equipped
• An energy-absorbing steering column and steering
wheel
• Knee bolsters/blockers for front seat occupants
• All seat belt systems (except driver’s and second row
center position) include Automatic Locking Retractors
(ALRs), which lock the seat belt webbing into position
by extending the belt all the way out and then adjust-
ing the belt to the desired length to restrain a child seat
or secure a large item in a seat — if equipped
Please pay close attention to the information in this
section. It tells you how to use your restraint system
properly, to keep you and your passengers as safe as
possible.
