Driver's front air bag⑴
OYB030090R
The air bag modules are located both in
the centre of the steering wheel and in
the front passenger's panel above the
glove box. When the SRSCM detects a
sufficiently severe impact to the front of
the vehicle, it will automatically deploy
the front air bags.

directly into the pad covers will separate
Air bag - supplemental restraint system
under pressure from the expansion of
the air bags. Further opening of the cov-
ers then allows full inflation of the air
bags.
Driver's front air bag⑶

A fully inflated air bag, in combination
with a properly worn seat belt, slows the
driver's or the passenger's forward
motion, reducing the risk of head and
chest injury.

After complete inflation, the air bag
immediately starts deflating, enabling
the driver to maintain forward visibility
and the ability to steer or operate other
controls.
