Do not attempt to open the airbagcover.
The airbag will deploy during frontalcollisions or collisions that are up to 30degrees from the left or the right. Theairbag will inflate within a few thousandthsof a second and deflate on contact withthe occupants, thus providing a cushionbetween the driver’s knees and the steeringcolumn. During overturns, rear collisionsand side collisions, the knee airbag will notdeploy.
For item location: See Instrument PanelOverview (page 15).
Note:The airbag has a lower deploymentthreshold than the front airbags. During aminor collision, it is possible that only theknee airbag will deploy.

INFLATABLE SAFETY BELTS
Rear Inflatable Safety Belt (If
Equipped)
WARNINGS
Do not attempt to service, repair, ormodify the rear inflatable safety belt.
If the rear inflatable safety belt hasdeployed, it will not function again.The rear inflatable safety belt systemmust be replaced by an authorized dealer.
The rear inflatable safety belts are fittedin the shoulder portion of the safety beltsof the second-row outboard seatingpositions.
Note:The rear inflatable safety belts areonly compatible with belt positioningbooster seats of Group 2 and 3 whenproperly installed. See Installing ChildSeats (page 17). This is because they aredesigned to fill with a cooled gas at a lowerpressure and at a slower rate thantraditional airbags. After inflation, theshoulder portion of the safety belt remainscool to the touch.
The rear inflatable safety belt consists ofthe following:
•An inflatable bag located in theshoulder safety belt webbing.
•Lap safety belt webbing withautomatic locking mode.
•The same warning light, electroniccontrol and diagnostic unit as used forthe front safety belts.
•Impact sensors located in various partsof the vehicle.
How does the rear inflatable safety beltsystem work?
The rear inflatable safety belts willfunction like standard restraints ineveryday usage.
During a crash of sufficient force, theinflatable belt will inflate from inside thewebbing.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine The fully inflated belt's increased diametermore effectively holds the occupant in theappropriate seating position, and spreadscrash forces over more area of the bodythan regular safety belts. This helps reducepressure on the chest and helps controlhead and neck motion for passengers.
The rear inflatable safety belts aredesigned to inflate in frontal or near-frontalcrashes and some side impact crashes.The fact that the rear inflatable safety beltdid not inflate in a crash does not meanthat something is wrong with the system.Rather, it means the forces were not of thetype sufficient to cause activation.
