3-34 Seats and Restraints
You can lock the doors, turn off the
interior lamps and hazard warning
flashers by using the controls for

{WARNING
A crash severe enough to
inflate the airbags may have
also damaged important functions
in the vehicle, such as the fuel
system, brake and steering
systems, etc. Even if the vehicle
appears to be drivable after a
moderate crash, there may be
concealed damage that could
make it difficult to safely operate
the vehicle.
Use caution if you should attempt
to restart the engine after a crash
has occurred.If damage to the vehicle is minor,
you may attempt to restart the
vehicle's engine. Note: If the fuel
system has been shut off after an
airbag has inflated, you may not
be able to restart the engine for up
to ten minutes. See
Starting the
Engineon page 9‑35for more
information.
In many crashes severe enough to
inflate the airbag, windshields are
broken by vehicle deformation.
Additional windshield breakage
may also occur from the right front
passenger airbag.
.Airbags are designed to inflate
only once. After an airbag
inflates, you will need some
new parts for the airbag system.
If you do not get them, the
airbag system will not be there to help protect you in another
crash. A new system will include
airbag modules and possibly
other parts. The service manual
for your vehicle covers the need
to replace other parts.
.The vehicle has a crash sensing
and diagnostic module which
records information after a
crash. See
Vehicle Data
Recording and Privacy
on
page 13‑15and Event Data
Recorders on page 13‑15.
.Let only qualified technicians
work on the airbag systems.
Improper service can mean that
an airbag system will not work
properly. See your dealer for
service.
