WARNING
This vehicle has an air bag system.

Refer to service manual before servicing or dis-

assembling underhood components. Read

section of manual for important instruc-

tions.

Improper service procedures can result in the

air bag firing or becoming inoperative, possibly
leading to injury.

CAUTION
This vehicle has air bags for front occupants
as a supplemental restraint system (SRS).
You must always wear your seatbelt, even with
an air bag:

Air bags are not designed to inflate in rollovers
or in rear, side or low-speed frontal crashed.
Air bags inflate powerfully and in a moment.
If you’re too close to an inflating air bag, it could
seriously injure you. Seatbelts help keep you
in position for air bag inflation in a crash. An
inflating air bag can seriously injure small chil-

dren. A child in a rear-facing child restraint can
be badly injured by an inflating air bag, so never
use a rear-facing child restraint in the front seat
of this vehicle: a rear-facing child restraint should
be used only in the rear seat. Use a forward-fac-
ing child restraint with the front passenger seat
as far back as possible, or in the rear seat.

if the

light comes on while you are driving,

or does not come on when you first start the
vehicles, see your dealer for service.
