SECTION 9O

BUMPERS AND FASCIAS

Caution : Disconnect the negative battery cable before removing or installing any electrical unit or when a tool or equipment could easily come in contact with exposed electrical terminals. Disconnecting this cable will help prevent personal injury and damage to the vehicle. The ignition must also be in LOCK unless otherwise noted.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

BUMPERS

The bumper systems are designed to sustain a collision into a fixed barrier at either 8 km/h (5 mph) or 4 km/h (2.5 mph) without damage. After absorbing the energy of a collision, these bumper systems restore themselves to their original position. Both the front and the rear bumpers feature an impact bar and a polymer fascia cover. Both the front and the rear bumper assembly can be removed as a whole unit or the fascia cover can be removed separately.
