Supplemental Restraint System The airbag is quite large and inflates with considerable force. It can seriously hurt a front seat passenger who is not in the proper position and wearing the seat belt properly. Front seat passengers should move the seat as far back as practical and sit well back in the seat. If a toddler seat is used in the front passenger's seat, the vehicle seat should be moved as far back as possible. If the passenger bag inflates, it could seriously hurt a toddler who is not in the proper position or properly restrained. Because of the airbag, we strongly recommend that you do not put an infant seat in the front passenger's seat. If the airbag inflates, it can dislodge the infant seat and seriously injure the infant. The passenger's airbag is stored near the top of the dashboard, under a lid marked SRS (see page 11). Do not place any objects on top of this lid. If the airbag inflates, those objects can be propelled inside the car and possibly hurt someone. How the SRS Indicator S R S Light Works The purpose of the SRS light on your instrument panel is to alert you to a potential problem with your supplemental restraint system. Have the system checked if: The light does not come on when you turn the ignition ON (II). The light stays on after the engine starts. The light comes on or flashes while you are driving.
