Seats and Restraints
. . . 202
Vehicles equipped with dual-stage
air bags have a seat position sensor
for the driver's seat which aids in
determining whether the driver's
air bag should inflate at reduced or
full deployment.
Vehicles equipped with dual-stage
air bags also have electronic
frontal sensors which help the
system distinguish between a
moderate and more severe frontal
impact.
Your vehicle is also equipped with
two seat-mounted side impact air
bags and two roof-mounted side-
impact air bags.
Seat-mounted side-impact air
bags are designed to inflate from
the outboard sides of the front
seatbacks during a moderate to
severe side collision on the side of
the vehicle which is struck.
Roof-mounted side-impact air
bags are designed to inflate during
a moderate to severe side collision,
severe frontal impact or a vehicle
rollover to protect the driver, the
front passenger and the two
passengers directly behind them.
Rollover capable roof-mounted
side impact air bags help reduce
the risk of full or partial ejection in
rollover events, although no
system can prevent all such
ejections.
