Before driving

■

SRS airbag deployment conditions (SRS side airbags and SRS curtain shield air-

bags)

●

The SRS side airbags and SRS curtain shield airbags will deploy in the event of

an impact that exceeds the set threshold level (the level of force corresponding

to the impact force produced by an approximately 3300 lb. [1500 kg] vehicle

colliding with the vehicle cabin from a direction perpendicular to the vehicle ori-

entation at an approximate speed of 12 - 18 mph [20 - 30 km/h]).

●

The front SRS side airbag on the passenger seat will not activate if there is no

passenger sitting in the front passenger seat. However, the front SRS side airbag

on the passenger seat may deploy if luggage is put in the seat, even if the seat is

unoccupied. (

■

Types of collisions that may not deploy the SRS airbags (SRS front airbags and

SRS seat cushion airbag)

The SRS front airbags and SRS seat cushion airbag are generally not designed to

inflate if the vehicle is involved in a side or rear collision, if it rolls over, or if it is

involved in a low-speed frontal collision. But, whenever a collision of any type

causes sufficient forward deceleration of the vehicle, deployment of the SRS front

airbags and SRS seat cushion airbag may occur.
