Determining if the system is operational

The SRS uses a readiness light in the instrument cluster or a tone to

indicate the condition of the system. Refer to the Air bag readiness

section in the Instrument Cluster chapter. Routine maintenance of the

air bag is not required.

Any difficulty with the system is indicated by one or more of the

following:

• The readiness light (same light as for front air bag system) will either

flash or stay lit.

• The readiness light will not illuminate immediately after ignition is

turned on.

• A series of five beeps will be heard. The tone pattern will repeat

periodically until the problem and light are repaired.

If any of these things happen, even intermittently, have the SRS serviced

at your dealership or by a qualified technician immediately. Unless

serviced, the system may not function properly in the event of a collision

or rollover event.

Disposal of air bags and air bag equipped vehicles (including

pretensioners)

See your local dealership or qualified technician. Air bags MUST BE

disposed of by qualified personnel.

SAFETY RESTRAINTS FOR CHILDREN

See the following sections for directions on how to properly use safety

restraints for children. Also see Air bag supplemental restraint system

(SRS) in this chapter for special instructions about using air bags.

Important child restraint precautions

You are required by law to use safety restraints for children in the U.S.

and Canada. If small children (generally children who are four years old

or younger and who weigh 40 lbs[18 kg] or less) ride in your vehicle, you

must put them in safety seats made especially for children. Many states

require that children use approved booster seats until they are eight

years old. Check your local and state or provincial laws for specific

requirements regarding the safety of children in your vehicle. When

possible, always place children under age 12 in the rear seat of your

vehicle. Accident statistics suggest that children are safer when properly

restrained in the rear seating positions than in the front seating position.
