WARNING - Steering

wheel

• You must always sit as far back

from the steering wheel air bag as

possible (chest at least 250 mm

(10 inches ) away from the steer-

ing wheel), while still maintaining

a comfortable seating position for

good vehicle control, in order to

reduce the risk of injury or death

in a collision.

• Never place objects over the air

bag storage compartments or

between the air bags and your-

self. Due to the speed and force of

the air bag inflation, such objects

could hit your body at high speed

and cause severe bodily injury

and even death.

• Do not put stickers or ornaments

on the steering wheel cover.

These may interfere with the

deployment of the air bag.

WARNING

• The front seat passenger’s air bag

is much larger than the steering

wheel air bag and inflates with

considerably more force. It can

seriously hurt or kill a passenger

who is not in the proper position

and wearing the safety belt prop-

erly. The front passengers should

always move their seat as far

back as practical and sit back in

their seat.

• It is essential that the front pas-

sengers always wear their safety

belts when vehicle is in motion,

even when the vehicle is moving

in a parking lot or up a driveway

into garage.

• If the driver brakes the vehicle

heavily in urgent situations, occu-

pants will be thrown forward. If

front passengers are not wearing

the safety belts, they will be

directly in front of the air bags

when inflation occurs. In that sit-

uation, severe injury or death is

possible.
