WARNING:Extreme Hazard! Never  
use a rearward facing child restraint on  
a seat protected by an active airbag in

cloud of harmless powdery residue if an  
airbag deploys. This is normal.  
WARNING:Do not modify the front  
of your vehicle in any way. This could

could result in serious personal injury or  
death.  
For routine cleaning, wipe the surface with  
a soft, damp cloth.

keep sufficient distance between  
yourself and the steering wheel. Only

result in serious personal injury or death.  
WARNING: Repairs to the steering  
wheel, steering column, seats, airbags  
and seatbelts must be carried out by an
