Here are the most important things to know about the
airbag system:

{

CAUTION:

You can be severely injured or killed in a crash
if you are not wearing your safety belt — even
if you have airbags. Wearing your safety belt
during a crash helps reduce your chance of
hitting things inside the vehicle or being ejected
from it. Airbags are “supplemental restraints”
to the safety belts. All airbags are designed to
work with safety belts but do not replace them.

Frontal airbags for the driver and right front
passenger are designed to deploy in moderate
to severe frontal and near frontal crashes.
They are not designed to inflate in rollover,
rearcrashes, or in many side crashes. And, for
some unrestrained occupants, frontal airbags
may provide less protection in frontal crashes
than more forceful airbags have provided in
the past.

CAUTION:

CAUTION:

The roof-mounted side impact airbags are
designed to inflate in moderate to severe
crashes where something hits the side of
your vehicle. They are not designed to inflate
in frontal or in rear crashes. The rollover
capable airbags have been designed to deploy
the roof-mounted side impact airbags in the
event of a vehicle rollover.

Everyone in your vehicle should wear a safety
belt properly — whether or not there is an
airbag for that person.
