Driver and front passenger supplemen-
tal knee air bags
This system can help cushion the impact
force to the driver’s and front passenger’s
knee in certain collisions.
The SRS is designed to
supplement
the
crash protection provided by the driver,
passenger and rear outboard seat belts
and is
not a substitute
for them. Seat belts
should always be correctly worn, and the
occupant should be seated a suitable dis-
tance away from the steering wheel, instru-
ment panel and door finishers. For addi-
tional information, see “Seat belts” (P. 1-11).
The supplemental air bags operate only
when the power switch is in the ON
position.
After the power switch is placed in the
ON position, the supplemental air bag
warning light illuminates. The supple-
mental air bag warning light will turn off
after about 7 seconds if the system is
operational.
