(4)Always use seat belts. Children 12 and under should always be in a back seat correctly using an infant or child restraint system, or the seat belt properly positioned, dependent on the child’s age and weight.
(5)The passenger occupant classifi cation system (OCS) determines the conditions for activation or deactivation of the passenger side front air bag based on the weight of the occupant. It may not activate the passenger air bag if the occupant has incorrect seating posture or is moving in the seat. Always observe the passenger air bag indicator light to determine if the OCS is deciding properly. Passengers should sit properly in the seat with the seat belt fastened at all times.
(6)No system, no matter how sophisticated, can repeal the laws of physics or overcome careless driving actions.

Always drive carefully, consistent with conditions. Please always wear your seat belt.
