SEAT, SEATBELT AND SRS AIRBAGS
can injure an occupant whose body is too close to SRS airbag.
It is also important to wear a seatbelt to help avoid injuries that can result when the SRS airbag contacts an occupant who is not seated in the proper upright position.
Even when properly positioned, there remains a possibility that an occupant may suffer minor injuries, such as abrasions and bruises to the face or arms, because of the SRS airbag deployment force.
WARNING
CAUTION
. When the SRS airbag deploys, some smoke will be released. This smoke could cause breathing problems for people with a history of asthma or other breathing trouble. If you or your passengers have breathing problems after SRS airbag deploys, get fresh air promptly.
. A deploying SRS airbag releases hot gas. Occupants could get burned if they come into direct contact with the hot gas.
NOTE
. When you sell your vehicle, we urge you to inform the buyer that the vehicle is equipped with SRS airbags. Also, notify the buyer of the applicable section in this Owner’ s Manual.
. If the SRS airbag deploys, fuel supply will be cut off to reduce the risk of fire caused by leaking fuel. For details about restarting of the engine, refer to“ If Your Vehicle Is Involved in an Accident” FP493.
