& SRS airbags
WARNING
Warning labels are located on both
sides of the front passenger's sun
visor. Carefully read the description
in "Warning label" F1-28.
For the locations of the SRS airbags, refer
to "Components" F1-52.
In a moderate to severe frontal collision,
the following components deploy.
. SRS frontal airbag for driver
. SRS frontal airbag for front passenger
. SRS knee airbag for driver
. SRS curtain airbag
*1
*1: When an offset frontal collision that is severe
enough to deploy the frontal airbag occurs
These components supplement the seat-
belts by reducing the impact to the
occupant's head, chest and knees.
In a moderate to severe side impact
collision, the SRS side airbag on the
impacted side of the vehicle deploys
between the occupant and the door panel
and supplements the seatbelt by reducing
the impact to the occupant's chest and
waist. The SRS side airbag operates only
for front seat occupants.
In a moderate to severe side impact
collision, the SRS curtain airbag on the
impacted side of the vehicle deploys
between the occupant and the side
window and supplements the seatbelt by
reducing the impact to the occupant's
head.
! Occupant detection system (if
equipped)
The occupant detection system sensor is
installed under the seat and monitors the
total load on the front passenger's seat.
The system has another sensor that
monitors the tension of the front passen-
ger's seatbelt. Using the total seat load
and seatbelt tension data from the sen-
sors, the occupant detection system de-
termines whether the front passenger's
SRS frontal airbag should be deployed or
not.
The occupant detection system may not
inflate the front passenger's SRS frontal
airbag even when the driver's SRS frontal
airbag deploys. This is normal.
