●
When a moderate to severe side
impact is detected during vehicle
travel and the triggering conditions are
met, the side airbag deploys to protect
the occupant's chest.
●
Generally, only the airbag on the
impacted side deploys in the event of
a side impact.
●
If the impact occurs on the passenger
side, the airbag on the passenger side
deploys even if there is no passenger in
the seat.
●
For optimal side airbag protection,
occupants must have their seat belts
fastened and sit upright against the
seatback.
Front far side airbag:
●
The vehicle is equipped with front
far side airbags for the front seats
(installed in the inner side edge of the
driver seat and marked with "AIRBAG",
as shown in the illustration).
●
When a moderate to severe front or
side impact is detected during vehicle
travel and the triggering conditions are
met, the far side airbag deploys to
protect the heads and shoulders of the
driver and the front passenger.
●
If the impact occurs on the front
passenger side, the far side airbag
deploys even if there is no passenger
in the seat.
●
For optimal far side airbag protection,
occupants must have their seat belts
fastened and sit upright against the
seatback.
In a vehicle equipped with seat side
airbags:
●
Prevent the seatbacks from getting
wet. If they get wet from rain or
splashes, the side airbag system may
not work properly.
●
Do not cover or replace seatback
covers on you own. Unsuitable
seatback covers may prevent airbag
deployment in a collision.
Side Curtain Airbags
●
The vehicle is equipped with curtain
airbags for the left and right front seats
(installed at the junction of the body
side trim and the ceiling and marked
with "AIRBAG" on the A-pillar, B-pillar,
and C-pillar trims, as shown in the
illustration).
●
When a moderate to severe side
impact is detected by ECU during
vehicle travel and the triggering
conditions are met, the side curtain
airbag deploys to protect the head of
the occupant on the side of collision.
