1. FRONT AIRBAGS
The airbag system is provided as a driver and front passenger restraint system supplementary to
the seat belts. When an impact greater than a set level is applied to the front of the vehicle, the
sensors generate an electrical pulse to inflate the airbags in the airbag modules, thus preventing
the driver’s and passenger’s upper bodies from directly hitting against the steering wheel, instru-
ment panel and/or windshield.
