WARNING
Seat children in the rear seat properly
restrained at all times. The SRS
airbag deploys with considerable
speed and force and can injure or

lighter and weaker than adults, their
risk of being injured from deployment
is greater...

are driving a vehicle with the Vehicle

CAUTION
Even if your vehicle is equipped
with the Vehicle Dynamics Control
system, winter tires should
be used when driving on snowcovered
or icy roads; in addition,
vehicle speed should be reduced
considerably...
