Supplemental restraint system (SRS)-airbag
E00407201117
The information for SRS airbags includes important informa-
tion concerning the driver’s and front passenger’s airbags, the
side airbags and the curtain airbags.
The SRS airbags are designed to supplement the primary pro-
tection of the driver and front passenger side seat belt systems
by providing those occupants with protection against head and
chest injuries in certain moderate-to-severe frontal collisions.
A dual-stage airbag system is used where the SRS airbags for
the driver’s and front passenger’s seats are controlled with
impact sensors (on the front of the vehicle and in the centre of
the vehicle floor).
The SRS side airbags (if so equipped) are designed to supple-
ment properly worn the seat belts and provide the driver and
front passenger with protection against chest and abdomen
injuries in certain moderate-to-severe side impact collisions.
The SRS curtain airbags (if so equipped) are designed to sup-
plement properly worn the seat belts and provide the driver and
passenger with protection against head injuries in certain mod-
erate-to-severe side impact collisions.
The SRS is NOT a substitute for the seat belts. To ensure the
maximum protection during all types of collisions and acci-
dents, all occupants, including the passengers as well as the
driver, must wear their seat belts.
