Each
deployed
airbag
is
filled
with
gas.
When
this
occurs,
the
airbag covers
open
and
the
airbags
unfold
with
great
force
into
the
deployment
zone
within
milliseconds.
Inflated
airbags
reduce
the
movement
of
persons
in
the
vehicle
who
are
wearing
safety
belts
in
the
direction
of
the
im-
pact
and
thus
help
to
reduce
the
risk of
injury.
They
can
help
to
protect
the
head,
upper
body,
and
lap,
for
example.
However,
there
is
the
possi-
bility
that
airbag
deployment
can
cause
injuries.
The
airbag
system
only
works
when
the
ignition
is
turned
on.
If
you
or
other
passengers
in
the
vehicle
have
physical
limitations
that
prevent
sitting
in
a
cor-
rect
position,
modifications
to
the
vehicle
may
be
necessary.

The
side
curtain
airbags
in
your
vehicle
have
ejection
mitigation
functions.
This
reduces
the
risk of
being
ejected
from
the
vehicle
inte-
rior
during
an
accident,
especially
in
the
event
of
a
vehicle
rollover.
