SRS airbag deployment conditions (SRS side and curtain shield air-
bags)
The SRS side and curtain shield airbags will deploy in the event of an
impact that exceeds the set threshold level (the level of force corre-
sponding to the impact force produced by an approximately 3300 lb.
[1500 kg] vehicle colliding with the vehicle cabin from a direction perpen-
dicular to the vehicle orientation at an approximate speed of 12-18 mph
[20-30 km/h]).
The SRS curtain shield airbags will deploy in the event of vehicle rollover.
The SRS side airbag on the passenger seat will not activate if there is no
passenger sitting in the front passenger seat. However, the SRS side air-
bag on the passenger seat may deploy if luggage is put in the seat, even
if the seat is unoccupied. (P. 166)
