SAFETYSAFETY
The side curtain airbags are located in the ceiling above the
side windows on both sides of the vehicle.
The side curtain airbags are designed to deploy in a rollover
or a moderate-to-severe side impact. If the SRS control unit
senses that your vehicle is about to roll over, it immediately
deploys both side curtain airbags and activates both front
seat belt tensioners. If the impact is on the passenger’s side,
the passenger’s side curtain airbag deploys even if there is no
passenger in the passenger seat.
To get the best protection from the side curtain airbags,
occupants should wear their seat belts properly and sit
upright and well back in their seats.
Do not attach any objects to the side windows or roof pillars,
as they can interfere with the proper operation of the side
curtain airbags.

n Important Facts About Y our Airbags
Always wear your seat belt properly, and sit upright and as far back from the steering wheel
as possible while allowing full control of the vehicle. A passenger should move their seat as
far back from the dashboard as possible.
Do not place hard or sharp objects between yourself and a front airbag. Carrying hard
or sharp objects on your lap, or driving with a pipe or other sharp object in your mouth, can
result in injuries if your front airbag inflates.
Do not attach or place objects on the front airbag covers. Objects on the covers marked
SRS AIRBAG could interfere with the proper operation of the airbags or be propelled inside
the vehicle and hurt someone if the airbags inflate.
Do not attach accessories on or near the side airbags. They can interfere with the proper
operation of the airbags, or hurt someone if an airbag inflates.
Do not attach any objects to the side windows or roof pillars. They can interfere with
the proper operation of the side curtain airbags.
Do not cover or replace the seat-back covers. This can prevent your side airbags from
properly deploying during a side impact.
An open glove box can cause serious injury to your passenger in a crash, even if
the passenger is wearing the seat belt.
Always keep the glove box closed while driving.
