NOTE:
The front airbags are certified to the Federal
regulations that allow less forceful deployment.
The front airbags have a multistage inflator design. This
allows the airbag to have different rates of inflation that
are based on collision severity.
WARNING!
• Do not put anything on or around the front airbag
covers or attempt to open them. You may damage the
airbags and you could be injured because the airbags
are no longer functional. These protective covers for
the airbag cushions are designed to open only when
the airbags are inflating.
• Do not drill, cut or tamper with the knee bolster in
any way.
• Do not mount any accessories to the knee bolster
such as alarm lights, stereos, citizens band radios etc.
This vehicle is also equipped with supplemental side
curtain airbags (located above the side windows) to
protect the driver and passenger sitting next to a window.
Their covers are also labeled SRS AIRBAG.
NOTE:
Airbag covers may not be obvious in the interior
trim, but they will open to allow airbag deployment.
