airbag disable SATURN VUE HYBRID 2008 Owners Manual

If your vehicle does not have a right front passenger seat,
the frontal passenger airbag is disabled. The frontal
passenger airbag is still in the vehicle, but it should not
deploy in a crash. Even if the airbag is disabled, do not
place cargo in front of this or any airbag.
{CAUTION:
Be sure that cargo is not near an airbag.
In a crash, an inating airbag might force
that object toward a person. This could cause
severe injury or even death. Secure objects
away from the area in which an airbag would
inate. For more information, seeWhere
Are the Airbags? on page 1-56andLoading
Your Vehicle on page 4-22.
Airbags are designed to supplement the protection
provided by safety belts. Even though today’s airbags
are also designed to help reduce the risk of injury
from the force of an inating bag, all airbags must
inate very quickly to do their job.Here are the most important things to know about the
airbag system:
{CAUTION:
You can be severely injured or killed in a crash
if you are not wearing your safety belt — even
if you have airbags. Wearing your safety belt
during a crash helps reduce your chance of
hitting things inside the vehicle or being
ejected from it. Airbags are “supplemental
restraints” to the safety belts. All airbags are
designed to work with safety belts, but do
not replace them.
