File:03ctsrr.ex Update:Thu Sep 21 14:14:44 1995 *[SR13039(ALL)07/95] necessary. The air bag system is designed to deploy in frontal and front-angled collisions more severe than hitting a parked vehicle (of similar size and weight) head-on at about 28 mph (45 km/h). Because the system senses the crash severity rather than vehicle speed, some frontal collisions at speeds above 28 mph (45 km/h) will not inflate the air bag.
File:03ctsrr.ex Update:Thu Sep 21 14:14:44 1995 [SR13045(ALL)09/95] half page art:0011064-A Inflated passenger side air bag *[SR13047(ALL)07/95] RWARNING If the air bag is inflated, THE AIR BAG WILL NOT FUNCTION AGAIN AND MUST BE REPLACED IMMEDIATELY.

File:03ctsrr.ex Update:Thu Sep 21 14:14:44 1995 *[SR13049(ALL)06/95] The air bag system uses a readiness light on the instrument cluster or a tone to indicate the condition of the system. When you turn the ignition to the ON position, this light will illuminate for approximately six (6) seconds and then turn off. This indicates that the system is operating normally. NOTE: Maintenance of the air bag system is not required.
