cThe seat belts and the supplemental
side air bag are most effective when
you are sitting well back and upright in
the seat. The side air bag inflates with
great force. Do not allow anyone to
place their hand, leg or face near the
side air bag on the side of the seatback
of the front seat. Do not allow anyone
sitting in the front seat to extend their
hand out of the window or lean against
the door.
cWhen sitting in the rear seat, do not
hold onto the seatback of the front seat.
If the side air bag inflates, you may be
seriously injured. Be especially careful
with children, who should always be
properly restrained. Some examples of
dangerous riding positions are shown
in the illustrations.
cDo not use seat covers on the front
seatbacks. They may interfere with
supplemental side air bag inflation.
