3. Instructions for safe operation
The front passenger’s frontal airbag is installed
inside the instrument panel (as indicated by
the dotted dash) marked with “SRS AIRBAG”.
In the event of a frontal collision which is
severe enough to meet the triggering condition
of frontal airbag, the frontal airbags will be
triggered by the system and deploy rapidly to
assist the seat belt in protecting the driver and
front passenger.
In certain collision accidents, the system may
simultaneously trigger other airbags.
WARNING

under any one of the following:
- when the ignition switch is in “ACC” or
“OFF” position.
- Minor frontal collision.
- Side collision.
- Rear collision.
- Rollover.
- Other special circumstances.
NOTE
The word “minor” implies the severity of
collision sensed by the vehicle control unit
and has nothing to do with the damage of
the vehicle.
