front-impact air bag system
This system can help cushion the impact force to the
head and chest area of the driver and/or front SSS0131A
passenger in certain frontal collisions. The supple-
mental front-impact air bag is designed to inflate on the
front where the vehicle is impacted.
The SRS is designed to supplement the accident
protection provided by the driver’s and passenger’s
seat belts and is not designed to substitute for them.
The SRS can help save lives and reduce serious
injuries. However, inflating air bags may cause abra-
sions or other injuries. Air bags do not provide
protection to the lower body. Seat belts should always
be correctly worn and the occupants should always be
seated a suitable distance away from the steering SSS0132A
