Curtain airbag system
E00409102058

flate only on the side of the vehicle that is
impacted, even with no passenger in the front
seat or rear seat.
Deployment of side airbags and
curtain airbags
E00407702728
The side airbags and curtain
airbags ARE DESIGNED TO
DEPLOY when...
The side airbags and curtain airbags are de-
signed to deploy when the vehicle suffers a
moderate-to-severe side impact to the middle
of the passenger compartment.
The typical condition is shown in the illustra-
tion.
The seat belts in your vehicle are your pri-
mary means of protection in a collision. The
SRS side airbags and curtain airbags are de-
signed to provide additional protection.
Therefore, for your safety and the safety of
all occupants, be sure to always properly
wear your seat belts.
The side airbags and curtain
airbags MAY NOT DEPLOY
when...
With certain types of side collisions, the ve-
hicle’s body structure is designed to absorb
the shock to help protect the occupants from
harm. (The vehicle body’s side area may de-
form significantly as it absorbs the impact.)
Under such circumstances, the side airbags
and curtain airbags may not deploy irrespec-
tive of the deformation and damage to the ve-
hicle body. Examples of some typical condi-
tions are shown in the illustration.
1- Side impacts in an area away from the
passenger compartment
2- Motorcycle or other similar small vehi-
cle collides with the side of vehicle
