Roof-mounted curtain side-impact supple-
mental air bag system
This system can help cushion the impact force to
the head of occupants in front and rear outboard
seating positions in certain side impact collisions.
In a side impact, the curtain air bags are designed
to inflate on the side where the vehicle is im-
pacted.
The SRS is designed to supplement the crash
protection provided by the driver and passenger
seat belts and are not a substitute for them.
Seat belts should always be correctly worn, and
the occupant should be seated a suitable dis-
tance away from the steering wheel, instrument
panel and door finishers. For additional informa-
tion, instructions, and precautions on seat belt
usage, refer to “Seat belts” in this section.
The supplemental air bags operate only
when the power switch is in the ON posi-
tion.
After the power switch is placed in the ON
position, the supplemental air bag warning
light illuminates. The supplemental air bag
warning light will turn off after about 7
seconds if the system is operational.
