CAUTION: (Continued)

They aren’t designed to inflate at all in rollover,

rear, side or low

-speed frontal crashes. And, for

some unrestrained occupants, air bags may

provide less protection in frontal crashes than

more forceful air bags have provided in the past.

Everyone in your vehicle should wear a safety

belt properly

-- whether or not there’s an air bag

for that person.

CAUTION:

Air bags inflate with great force, faster than the

blink of an eye. If you’re too close to an inflating

air bag, as you would be if you were leaning

forward, it could seriously injure you. Safety

belts help keep you in position before and during

a crash. Always wear your safety belt, even

with air bags. The driver should sit as far back

as possible while still maintaining control of

the vehicle.

CAUTION:

Anyone who is up against, or very close to, any

air bag when it inflates can be seriously injured

or killed. Air bags plus lap

-shoulder belts offer

the best protection for adults, but not for young

children and infants. Neither the vehicle’s safety

belt system nor its air bag system is designed for

them. Young children and infants need the

protection that a child restraint system can

provide. Always secure children properly in your

vehicle. To read how, see the part of this manual

called “Children.”
