Deployment of SRS Airbag
When the vehicle collides head-on with an impact of a certain level or higher, the SRS
airbag system (including the passenger side airbag, if equipped) is activated and
instantly inflates. It deflates quickly and does not hinder visibility.
When Does SRS Airbag Develop its Full Effect?
WARNING
Before driving the vehicle, properly adjust your seat for proper driving position
and wear the seat belt correctly. Do not sit closer than necessary to the steering
wheel and do not lean over it. If your vehicle is equipped with a passenger's
airbag, do not allow the passenger to put his/ her hands or feet on the instrument
panel and to sit with his/ her face or chest close to it. When the airbag is
activated, you and / or the passenger may suffer a burn on or serious injury to
the arm or face. Attaching a stickers or placing such things as accessories or
air freshener on the top surface of the instrument panel is also dangerous. They
may prevent normal operation of the airbag or would fly off in the event of airbag
activation.
If the steering wheel is changed to a non-standard one or a sticker is attached
to the steering wheel pad, there would be a danger of system malfunction or the
sticker flying off in the event of airbag activation.
