Side airbags and side curtain airbags are
designed to inflate in severe side impact
collisions when the ignition switch is in
“ON” position or the ignition mode is ON.
Side airbags and side curtain airbags are
not designed to inflate in frontal or rear col-
lisions, rollovers or minor side collisions,
since they would offer no protection in
those types of accidents. Only the side air-
bag and side curtain airbag on the side of
the vehicle that is struck will inflate. How-
ever, in a frontal angle collision, the side
airbags and side curtain airbags may
inflate. Since an airbag deploys only one
time during an accident, seat belts are
needed to restrain occupants from further
movements during the accident.
