Roll sensing function:
In response to a vehicle rollover, the SRS
curtain shield airbags on both sides work
with the seat belts to help reduce injury
by inflating. The SRS curtain shield air-
bags help reduce injuries mainly to the
driver's, front passenger's or second seat
passenger's head and can help the driver,
front passenger and second seat passen-
gers to retain inside the vehicle.
The SRS curtain shield airbag on the pas-
senger side is activated even with no pas-
senger in the front seat or second seat.
The SRS curtain shield airbags may acti-
vate even when the side airbags are not
activated.
Always wear your seat belt properly.
CAUTION
The SRS side airbag and curtain
D
shield airbag system is designed
only as a supplement to the prima-
ry protection of the driver, front
and second outboard seat passen-
ger seat belt systems. The front
and second seat occupants can be
killed or seriously injured by the
inflating airbags if they do not wear
the available seat belts properly.
During sudden braking just before
a collision, an unrestrained driver,
front passenger or second seat pas-
senger can move forward or side-
ways into direct contact with or
close proximity to the airbag which
may then deploy during the colli-
sion. To ensure maximum protection
in an accident, the driver and all
passengers
in
the
vehicle
wear
their
seat
belts
properly.
Wearing a seat belt properly during
an accident reduces the chances of
death or serious injury or being
