SEATS, SEAT BELTS, CHILD RESTRAINTS AND AIR BAGS 101 WARNING! • Any maintenance performed on or near the components of the SRS should be performed only by an authorized dealer. Do not permit anyone else to do service, inspection, maintenance or repair on any SRS components or wiring. Similarly, no part of the SRS should ever be handled, removed or disposed of by anyone except at an authorized dealer. Improper work on the SRS components or wiring could result in an accidental air bag deployment or could make the SRS inoperative. Either of these situation could result in serious injury. • Do not modify your steering wheel or any other SRS components or related vehicle part. For example, replacement of the steering wheel, or modifications to the front bumper or body structure can negatively affect SRS performance and may lead to possible injury. • If your vehicle has received any front-end damage, you should have the SRS inspected by an authorized dealer to make sure it is in proper working order. WARNING! • On vehicles with side air bags, do not modify your front seats, center pillar or center console. Such modifications can adversely affect SRS performance and may lead to possible injury. Also, if you discover any tear or open seam in the seat fabric near the side air bag, have the seat inspected by an authorized dealer. • On vehicles with side air bags, if your vehicle has received any damage on either side, you should have the SRS inspected by an authorized dealer to make sure it is in proper working order. NOTE: • When you transfer ownership of the vehicle to another person, we urge you to alert the new owner that it is equipped with the SRS and refer that owner to the applicable sections in this owner's manual. 3
