Curtain Air Bag Module - Mazda 6 Training Manual

CURTAIN AIR BAG MODULE

Function
• During a lateral collision to the vehicle, the air bag operates (deploys) after receiving an operation signal from
the SAS unit, defusing impact to the side of the head of the driver and other passengers (passenger-side and
rear outboard-seated passenger).
Construction
• The curtain air bag modules are equipped along the roof edge between the A and B pillars.
• The curtain air bag module is composed of the inflator, pipe, bag cover, and air bag.
• When the curtain air bag deploys, the A-pillar trim and headliner is spread apart by argon gas generated from
the inflator, inflating the air bag.
