Side air bag (if equipped)Side air bags are stored in the left
side of the driver’ s seat and right side
of the front passenger’ s seat.
If air bag inflation conditions are met
(side collision), they will inflate.
1LDA2056
1LDN2050/1LDN2051
(Continued)
 If the driver brakes the vehicle heavily prior to an impact,
unbelted occupants will be
thrown forward. If the front
passenger is not wearing the
safety belts, they will be
directly in front of the air bag
when deployment occurs. In
that situation, serious injury
or death is possible.
 Never allow front passenger to put their hands, feet or face
on or close to the instrument
panel. In the event of air bag
deployment, such a misposi-
tioned occupant would be
likely to suffer severe injury or
death.
 Never allow children, pregnant women or weak persons to sit
in the front passenger seat.
They may be seriously injured
by the air bag inflation when
air bag deploys.
(Continued)
(Continued)
 Do not use child restraint sys-tems on the front passenger's
seat, as inflation may cause
death or severe personal
injury.
 Do not put objects or stickers on the instrument panel. Do
not apply any accessory to the
front windshield. Do not install
aftermarket mirrors or acces-
sories on the factory-installed
rearview mirror. Any of these
could interfere with the
deployment of the air bag or
could hit your body at high
speed and cause severe bodi-
ly injury and even death.
