Isuzu Tilt Slide FYJ2000 Instruction Manual page 237

NOTE
• The airbag is quickly deflated after deployment and does not hinder visibility.
• When the seat belt with pretensioner and airbag are activated in a collision, the
SRS airbag warning light comes on.
When and How the Seat Belt with Pretensioner and SRS
The seat belt with pretensioner and SRS airbag system is activated when the vehicle
receives an impact exceeding a certain level in the event of a frontal collision. Because
the vehicle body absorbs part of impact energy, the system may not be activated due to
reduction in the force of the impact or the intensity or direction of the impact received.
However, even if the front of the vehicle is largely deformed by the collision, in some
cases the impact on the seat is not severe. Therefore, the severity of deformation of
and damage to the vehicle do not necessarily match with the activation of the airbag.
When is the Seat Belt with Pretensioner and SRS Airbag System
Activated?
When the vehicle collides head-on
against a parked/stopped vehicle or
a moving vehicle with an impact of a
certain level or higher
WARNING
• Immediately after the airbag is inflated, the metal portion that inflates the airbag
gets hot. Do not touch it. Doing so may cause a serious injury such as a burn.
