The side airbags (A) are contained in the driver and front passenger seatbacks. The side airbag is de
signed to inflate only on
the side of the vehicle that is impacted, even with no passenger in the front seat. A label is attached to the seatbacks in vehi- cles with side airbags.
WA R N I N G Do not attach anything to the steering wheel’s padded cover, such as trim mate-rial, badges, etc. These could strike andinjure an occupant if the airbag inflates.  Do not set anything on, or attach anything to, the instrument
panel above the glove
compartment. Such items could strike and injure an occupant if the airbag inflates. WA R N I N G Do not attach accessories to, or put them in front of, the windshield. They could restrict the airbag inflation, or strike andinjure an occupant
, when the airbag
inflates.  Do not attempt to remove, install, disas- semble or repair the SRS airbags.
 Do not place objects,
such as packages or
pets, between the airbags and the driveror the front passenger. Such objects canadversely affect ai
rbag performance, or
cause serious injury or death when the airbag deploys. Immediately after airbag inflation, some parts of the airbag syst
em will be hot. Do
not touch them. You could be burned.  The airbag system is designed to work only once. After the
airbags deploy, they
will not work again. They must promptly be replaced and the
entire airbag system
must be inspected by a certified i-MiEV dealer.WA R N I N G

SRS servicing
WA R N I N G Any maintenance performed on or near the components of the SRS should be per-formed only by a certified i-MiEV dealer. Do not permit anyone else to do any ser- vice, inspection, main
tenance or repair on
any SRS components or
wiring. Similarly,
no part of the SRS should ever be handled, removed or disposed
by anyone except a
certified i-MiEV dealer. Improper work methods on the SRS com- ponents or wiring could result in an acci-dental airbag deploym
ent or could make
the SRS inoperable. Ei
ther of these situa-
tions could result in serious injury ordeath.  Do not modify your steering wheel or any other SRS component
or related vehicle
part. For example, replacement of the steering wheel, or modifications to thefront bumper or body structure can adversely affect SR
S performance and
may lead to injury. If your vehicle has re
ceived any damage,
you should have the
SRS inspected by a
certified i-MiEV dealer to make sure it is in proper working order.
 Do not modify your front seats, center pil- lar or center console. Such modificationscan adversely affect
SRS performance and
may lead to injury. Also, if you discove
r any tear or open
seam in the seat fabr
ic near the side air-
bag, have the seat in
spected by a certified
i-MiEV dealer.  If you find a crack in
or damage to the
front pillar, rear pillar, or roof side rail where the curtain airbag is located, havethe SRS inspected by a certified i-MiEV dealer.NOTE
 When you transfer ownership of the vehicle to another person, we
urge you to alert the
new owner that it is

and refer that owner to
the applicable sec-
tions in this owner’s manual.  If you decide to junk or scrap your vehicle, we urge you to first take it to a certified i- MiEV dealer so that the SRS can be madesafe for disposal.  If any of the following parts needs to be modified for use by
