Relying on the air bags alone could
lead to more severe injuris in a collision.
The air bags work with your seat belt to

bump at the side of the vehicle or if the
vehicle rolls over, the airbags may not be
employed.
In the event of a rear or front collision, none
of the lateral airbags are deployed.

low as possible and keep it snug.

any nearer to the door than necessary.

body, without twists.
If you can't straighten a seat belt in your
vehicle, take it to an authorized dealer
immediately and have it fixed.
