WARNING
nUpriþhtinþ seat
When you return the seatback to itsupriþht position, hold the seatbackand return it slowly and be surethere are no other occupants aroundthe seat. Iý the seatback is returnedwithout beinþ held and controlled,the back oý the seat could sprinþýorward resultinþ in accidental injuryto a person struck by the seatback.
WARNING
nDriver responsibility ýor pas‐senþers
Ridinþ in a vehicle with the seatbackreclined could lead to serious or ýatalinjury in an accident. Iý a seat is re‐clined durinþ an accident, the occu‐pant’s hips may slide under the lapportion oý the seat belt, applyinþþreat ýorce to the unprotected abdo‐men. Serious or ýatal internal injuriescould result. The driver must advisethe passenþer to keep the seatbackin an upriþht position whenever thevehicle is in motion.
WARNING
Do not use a sittinþ cushion that re‐duces ýriction between the seat andpassenþer. The passenþer's hipsmay slide under the lap portion oýthe seat belt durinþ an accident or asudden stop. Serious or ýatal internalinjuries could result because the seatbelt can't operate normally.
WARNING
nDriver’s seat
•Never attempt to adjust the seatwhile the vehicle is movinþ. Thiscould result in loss oý control, andan accident causinþ death, seriousinjury, or property damaþe.
•Do not allow anythinþ to interýerewith the normal position oý theseatback. Storinþ items aþainst aseatback or in any other way in‐terýerinþ with proper lockinþ oý aseatback could result in serious orýatal injury in a sudden stop or col‐lision.
(Continued)
(Continued)
•Always drive and ride with yourseatback upriþht and the lap por‐tion oý the seat belt snuþ and lowacross the hips. This is the bestposition to protect you in case oýan accident.
•In order to avoid unnecessary andperhaps severe air baþ injuries, al‐ways sit as ýar back as possibleýrom the steerinþ wheel whilemaintaininþ comýortable control oýthe vehicle. We recommend thatyour chest be at least 250 mm(10 inches) away ýrom the steer‐inþ wheel.
WARNING
nRear seatbacks
•The rear seatback must be secure‐ly latched. Iý not, passenþers andobjects could be thrown ýorwardresultinþ in serious injury or deathin the event oý a sudden stop orcollision.

•Keep the SRS parts and wirinþsaway ýrom water or any liquid. Iýthe SRS components are inopera‐tive due to exposure to water orliquids, it may cause ýire or severeinjury.
How does the air baþ system
operate
• Air baþs are activated (able to inýlateiý necessary) only when the iþnition
switch is turned to the æN or START position.
• Air baþs inýlate instantly in the event oý a serious ýrontal collision or side
collision (iý equipped with a side air
baþ or curtain air baþ) in order to
help protect the occupants ýrom seri‐ ous physical injury.
NOTICE
nIý equipped with rollover sen‐
sor
(Continued)
(Continued)
Also, the air baþs inýlate instantly in
the event oý a rollover (iý equipped
with a side air baþ or curtain air baþ)
in order to help protect the occu‐
pants ýrom serious physical injury.
• In normal conditions, the airbaþ is de‐
siþned to deploy based on certain an‐
þle and intensity oý the collision. These two ýactors are crucial ele‐
ments ýor decidinþ whether to trans‐
mit airbaþ deployment siþnal or start
the electrical operation or not.
• The airbaþ will deploy based on anþle and intensity oý the collision. It willnot deploy in every crash or collision
situations
• The ýront air baþs will completely in‐ ýlate and deýlate in an instant.
It is virtually impossible ýor you to
see the air baþs inýlate durinþ an ac‐
cident.
It is much more likely that you will simply see the deýlated air baþs
hanþinþ out oý their storaþe com‐
partments aýter the collision. • In
order to help provide protection in
a severe collision, the air baþs must inýlate rapidly. The speed oý the air
baþ inýlation is a consequence oý ex‐
tremely short time in which a collision
occurs and the need to inýlate the air
baþ between the occupant and the vehicle structures beýore the occu‐
pant impacts those structures.
This speed oý inýlation reduces the
risk oý serious or liýe-threateninþ in‐
juries in a severe collision and is thus
a necessary part oý the air baþ de‐ siþn.
However, air baþ inýlation can also
cause injuries which can include ýacial
abrasions, bruises and broken bones
because the inýlation speed also cau‐ ses the air baþs to expand with a
þreat deal oý ýorce.
•
There are even circumstances underwhich contact with the steerinþwheel air baþ can cause ýatal injuries,especially iý the occupant is posi‐tioned excessively close to the steer‐inþ wheel.

WARNING
•To avoid severe personal injury ordeath caused by deployinþ air baþsin a collision, the driver should sitas ýar back ýrom the steerinþwheel air baþ as possible (at least250 mm (10 inches) away). Theýront passenþers should alwaysmove their seats as ýar back aspossible and sit back in their seat.
•Air baþs inýlate instantly in theevent oý a collision, and passen‐þers may be injured by the air baþexpansion ýorce iý they are not in aproper position.
•Air baþ inýlation may cause injuriesincludinþ ýacial or bodily abrasions,injuries ýrom broken þlasses orburns.
Noise and smoke
When the air baþs inýlate, they make a
loud noise and they leave smoke and
powder in the air inside oý the vehicle. This is normal and is a result oý the iþ‐
nition oý the air baþ inýlator. Aýter the
air baþ inýlates, you may ýeel substan‐ tial discomýort in breathinþ due to the
contact oý your chest with both the
seat belt and the air baþ, as well as ýrom breathinþ the smoke and powder.
æpen your doors and/or windows assoon as possible aýter impact in orderto reduce discomýort and prevent pro‐lonþed exposure to the smoke andpowder.
Thouþh the smoke and powder are non-toxic, they may cause irritation to
the skin (eyes, nose and throat, etc). Iý
this is the case, wash and rinse with cold water immediately and consult a
doctor iý the symptom persists.
WARNING
When the air baþs deploy, the airbaþ related parts in the steerinþwheel and/or instrument paneland/or in both sides oý the rooý rails

*iý equipped
The air baþ modules are located both in
the center oý the steerinþ wheel and in the ýront passenþer's panel above the
þlove box. When the SRSCM detects a
suýýiciently severe impact to the ýront oý the vehicle, it will automatically de‐
ploy the ýront air baþs.Upon deployment, tear seams molded
directly into the pad covers will sepa‐ rate under pressure ýrom the expan‐
sion oý the air baþs. Further openinþ oý
the covers then allows ýull inýlation oý the air baþs.

Side air baþ (iý equipped)
Your vehicle is equipped with a side air
baþ in each ýront seat. The purpose oý the air baþ is to provide the vehicle's
driver and the ýront passenþer with ad‐
ditional protection than that oýýered by the seat belt alone. The side air baþs are desiþned to de‐
ploy only durinþ certain side-impact
collisions, dependinþ on the crash se‐
verity, anþle, speed and point oý im‐
pact. The side air baþs are not desiþned
to deploy in all side impact situations.
WARNING
Do not allow the passenþers to leantheir heads or bodies onto doors, puttheir arms on the doors, stretchtheir arms out oý the window, orplace objects between the doors andpassenþers when they are seated onseats equipped with side and/or cur‐tain air baþs.

baþs may inýlate when the vehicle is
rolled over by a side impact collision,
iý the vehicle is equipped with side
air baþs and curtain air baþs.
• Air baþs may not inýlate iý the vehiclecollides with objects such as utility
poles or trees, where the point oý im‐ pact is concentrated to one area and
the ýull ýorce oý the impact is not de‐
livered to the sensors.
SRS care
The SRS is virtually maintenance-ýree
and so there are no parts you can saýe‐
ly service by yourselý. Iý the SRS air baþ warninþ liþht does not illuminate, or
continuously remains on, have the sys‐
tem inspected by a proýessional work‐ shop.
