The air bags will not deploy in impacts which do not exceed the system's preset deployment thresholds. You will then be protected by the fastened seat belts. The front air bags will not deploy in the event of a rollover unless the vehicle's rate of longitudinal deceleration or acceleration exceeds the preset deployment threshold for the front air bags. The front passenger front air bag will only be deployed if Rvehicles Safety and security Driver's front air bag : and front passenger front air bag ; are designed to provide increased protection for the driver and front passenger against the risk of injuries to the head and thorax.

Improper repair work on the doors or the modification or addition of components to the doors create a risk of rendering the side G Observe Safety notes, see page 37. The front air bags in this vehicle have been designed to inflate in two stages. This allows the air bags to have different rates of inflation. The rate of inflation is based on the vehicle deceleration rate as assessed by the air bag control unit. Vehicles with OCS, USA only: The front passenger front air bag deployment is additionally influenced by the passenger's weight category as identified by the Occupant Classification System (OCS) (Y page 42). Vehicles with OCS, USA only: The lighter the front passenger-side occupant, the higher the vehicle deceleration rate required for second
