in the event of a side impact if the vehicle

decelerates or accelerates rapidly in a

lateral direction on the side opposite to the

impact.

in certain situations where the vehicle rolls

over if the system determines that it can

provide additional protection.

If the ETDs are deployed, you will hear a bang,

and a small amount of powder may also be

released. Only in rare cases will the bang

affect your hearing. The powder that is

released generally does not constitute a

health hazard and does not indicate that there

is a fire in the vehicle. The dust might cause

some temporary breathing difficulty for

people with asthma or other breathing

trouble. To avoid this, you may wish to get out

of the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.

You can also open the window to allow fresh

air to enter the vehicle interior. The 6 SRS

warning lamp lights up.

If the seat belt is also equipped with a seat

belt force limiter and this is triggered, the

force exerted by the seat belt on the vehicle

occupant is reduced.

The seat belt force limiters for the front seats

are synchronized with the front air bags,

which absorb part of the deceleration force.

This results in the force exerted on the

occupant being distributed over a greater

area.

Important safety notes

WARNING

According to accident statistics, children are

safer when properly restrained in the rear

seating positions than in the front seating

position. Thus, we strongly recommend that

children be placed in the rear seats whenever

possible. Regardless of seating position,

children 12 years old and under must be

seated and properly secured in an appropriate

infant restraint, toddler restraint, or booster

seat recommended for the size and weight of

the child.

The infant or child restraint must be properly

secured with the vehicle's seat belt, the seat

belt and top tether strap, or lower anchors and

top tether strap, fully in accordance with the

child seat manufacturer's instructions.

Occupants, especially children, should always

sit as upright as possible, wear the seat belt

properly and use an appropriately sized infant

restraint, toddler restraint, or booster seat

recommended for the size and weight of the

child.

Children can be killed or seriously injured by

an inflating air bag. Note the following

important information when circumstances

require you to place a child in the front

passenger seat:

Your vehicle is equipped with air bag

technology designed to deactivate the front

passenger front air bag in your vehicle

when the system senses the weight of a

typical 12-month-old child or less along

with the weight of a standard appropriate

child restraint on the front passenger seat.

For children larger than the typical

12-month-old child, the front passenger

front air bag may or may not be activated.

Always make sure the 4 5 indicator

lamp is illuminated, indicating that the front

passenger front air bag is deactivated.

A child in a rear-facing child restraint on the

front passenger seat will be seriously

injured or even killed if the front passenger

front air bag inflates in a collision which

could occur under some circumstances,

even with the air bag technology installed

in your vehicle. The only means to

completely eliminate this risk is to never

place a child in a rear-facing child restraint

in the front seat. We therefore strongly
