32 Safety

Front passenger seat

WARNING

Never secure a rear-facing child seat in the right front seat of a car equipped with a passenger airbag. Inflation of the airbag in the event of a crash could seriously injure or kill a child.

The airbags are interconnected and have a common warning light. The passenger airbag module is housed in the fascia above the glove compartment and is marked

AIRBAG

Both airbags will be inflated in the event of a moderate to severe frontal, or near-frontal crash, even if the passenger seat is unoccu- pied.

WARNING

• DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY can occur.

•Children 12 and under or shorter than 59 inches (150 cm) can be killed by the airbag.

•The BACK SEAT is the SAFEST place for children.

•NEVER put a rear-facing child seat in the front.

•Sit as far back as possible from the air- bag.

•ALWAYS use SAFETY BELTS and

CHILD RESTRAINTS.

•Never allow a child to stand in front of the seat or to sit on the lap of a front-seat passenger. Serious injury or death could result if the airbag is inflated in a crash.

•The glove compartment must be closed while travelling. An open glove compartment door could cause leg injuries in the event of a crash.

•Never place anything on the dash or in front of the seat as, in addition to being a hazard to passengers, this could interfere with the function of the airbag in the event of a crash. The same applies to the mounting of accessories on the dash.

•Keep feet on the floor – never put feet up on the fascia, on the seat or out of the window.

•Do not carry anything in your lap.
