Safety system of your vehicle
• Front air bags are not designed to
inflate in rear collisions, because occu-
pants are moved backward by the
force of the impact. In this case, inflat-
ed air bags would not be able to pro-
vide any additional benefit.

OPA037042
• Front air bags may not inflate in side
impact collisions, because occupants
move to the direction of the collision,
and thus in side impacts, front air bag
deployment would not provide addi-
tional occupant protection.
However, if equipped with side impact
or curtain air bags, the air bags may
inflate depending on the intensity,
vehicle speed and angles of impact.
OSA038121
• In an angled collision, the force of
impact may direct the occupants in a
direction where the air bags would not
be able to provide any additional ben-
efit, and thus the sensors may not
deploy any air bags.
