Original text according to ECER94.01: Extreme Hazard! Do not usea rearward facing child restraint on
a seat protected by an airbag in front ofit!
Wear a seat belt and keep sufficientdistance between yourself and thesteering wheel. Only when you use
the seat belt properly, can it hold you in aposition that allows the airbag to achieveits optimum effect. See Sitting in thecorrect position (page 110).

Note: You will hear a loud bang and seea cloud of harmless powdery residue if anairbag deploys. This is normal.
Note: Only wipe airbag covers with adamp cloth.
Driverandfrontpassengerairbags
E74302
The driver and front passenger airbagswill deploy during significant frontalcollisions or collisions that are up to 30degrees from the left or the right. Theairbags will inflate within a fewthousandths of a second and deflate oncontact with the occupants, thuscushioning forward body movement.During minor frontal collisions, overturns,rear collisions and side collisions, the driverand front passenger airbags will notdeploy.
Driver knee airbag
CAUTION
Do not attempt to open the driverknee airbag cover.
The driver knee airbag will deploy duringfrontal collisions or collisions that are upto 30 degrees from the left or the right.The airbag will inflate within a fewthousandths of a second and deflate oncontact with the occupants, thusproviding a cushion between the driversknees and the steering column. Duringoverturns, rear collisions and sidecollisions, the knee airbag will not deploy.
