Supplemental Restraint System FRONTAL COLLISION RANGE An airbag inflates and deflates very quickly. It cannot protect you during any additional impacts that can occur during a crash. A seat belt helps keep you in the proper position when an airbag inflates. An airbag opens with considerable force and can hurt you if you are not in the proper position. How the Driver's Airbag Works Important Safety Reminder Even with an airbag, you need to wear a seat belt. The reasons are: Airbags only inflate in severe frontal collisions. They offer no protection in rear impacts, side impacts, rollovers or moderate frontal collisions. If you ever have a severe frontal collision, your airbag will instantly inflate to help protect your head and chest. When the airbag inflates, you may hear a fairly loud noise and you might see smoke and powder. This is normal; it is caused by the inflation of the airbag. Driver and Passenger Safety

Supplemental Restraint System
Important Safety Reminder
Even with an airbag, you need to
wear a seat belt. The reasons are:
Airbags only inflate in severe
frontal collisions. They offer no
protection in rear impacts, side
impacts, rollovers or moderate
frontal collisions.
An airbag inflates and deflates
very quickly. It cannot protect
you during any additional
impacts that can occur during a
crash.
A seat belt helps keep you in the
proper position when an airbag
inflates. An airbag opens with
considerable force and can
hurt you if you are not in the
proper position.
How the Driver's
Airbag Works
If you ever have a severe frontal
collision, your airbag will instantly
inflate to help protect your head
and chest.
When the airbag inflates, you may
hear a fairly loud noise and you
might see smoke and powder. This
is normal; it is caused by the
inflation of the airbag.
