Your vehicle is equipped with a

Supplemental Restraint System (SRS)

and lap/shoulder belts at both the driver

and passenger seating positions.

The SRS consists of air bags which are

located in the centre of the steering

wheel and the passenger’s side front

panel pad above the glove box. The air

bags are labelled with the letters “AIR

BAG” embossed on the pad covers.

The purpose of the SRS is to provide the

vehicle’s driver and front passengers

with additional protection than that

offered by the seat belt system alone

in case of a frontal impact of sufficient

severity.
