For Safety Connect subscribers, if any of
●
the following situations occur, the system
is designed to send an emergency call to
the response center, notifying them of the
vehicle's location (without needing to
push the "SOS" button) and an agent will
attempt to speak with the occupants to
ascertain the level of emergency and
assistance required. If the occupants are
unable to communicate, the agent auto-
matically treats the call as an emergency
and helps to dispatch the necessary
emergency services. (P.412)

impact when
●
The following SRS airbags will deploy in
the event of an impact that exceeds a
threshold level (level of force corre-
sponding to an approximately 12 - 18
mph [20 - 30 km/h] frontal collision with
a fixed wall that does not move or
deform):
• SRS front airbags
• SRS knee airbags
The threshold level at which the SRS air-
●
bags will deploy will be higher than nor-
mal in the in the following situations:
• When the vehicle collides with an object,
such as a parked vehicle or sign pole,
which moves or deforms on impact
• If the vehicle is involved in an underride
collision, such as a collision in which the
front of the vehicle "underrides", or goes
under, the bed of a truck

Depending on the type of collision, only
●
the following may deploy:
• Seat belt pretensioners
●
The SRS airbags for the front passenger's
seat will not deploy if there is no passen-
ger in the front passenger seat. However,
the SRS airbags for the front passenger's
seat may deploy, even if the seat is unoc-
cupied, if luggage is put on the seat.
In the event of an especially severe frontal
●
collision, the left and right SRS curtain
shield airbags may also deploy.
The SRS airbags deploy in a side impact
■
when
●
The following SRS airbags will deploy in
the event of an impact that exceeds the
set threshold level (level of force corre-
sponding to the impact force produced
by an approximately 3300 lb. [1500 kg]
vehicle colliding with the passenger com-
partment at a perpendicular angle at an
approximate speed of 12 - 18 mph [20 -
30 km/h]):
• SRS side airbags
• SRS curtain shield airbags
If the vehicle is involved in a rollover, the
●
following SRS airbags will deploy:
• Both left and right SRS curtain shield air-
bags
■
The SRS airbags deploy in an underside
impact when
The following airbags may deploy if the
●
underside of the vehicle collides with a
hard object:
• SRS front airbags
• SRS knee airbags
• SRS side airbags
• SRS curtain shield airbags
●
The following airbags may deploy if the
vehicle becomes significantly tilted or is
strongly impacted by skidding into a curb,
