■

SRS airbag deployment conditions (SRS front airbags)

●
The SRS front airbag will deploy in the event of an impact that exceeds
the set threshold level (the level of force corresponding to an approxi-
mately 20 - 30 km/h [12 - 18 mph] frontal collision with a fixed wall that
does not move or deform).
However, this threshold velocity will be considerably higher if the vehicle
strikes an object, such as a parked vehicle or sign pole, which can move or
deform on impact, or if the vehicle is involved in an underride collision (e.g.
a collision in which the front of the vehicle "underrides", or goes under, the
bed of a truck, etc.).
●
Depending on the type of collision, it is possible that only the seat belt
pretensioners will activate.
