The first stage inflator is triggered immediately during an
impact that requires airbag deployment. This low output
is used in less severe collisions. A higher energy output is
used for more severe collisions.
NOTE: The passenger Advanced Front Airbag may not
deploy, even when the driver Advanced Front Airbag
has, if the Occupant Classification System (refer to Oc-
cupant Classification System ) has determined the pas-
senger seat is empty or is occupied by someone that is
classified in the child size category. This could be a
child, teenager, or even an adult.
THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE 59
WARNING!
• No objects should be placed over or near the
airbag on the instrument panel, because any such
objects could cause harm if the vehicle is in a
collision severe enough to cause the airbag to
inflate.
• Do not put anything on or around the Advanced
Front Airbag covers or attempt to manually open
them. You may damage the airbags and you could
be injured because the airbags may no longer be
functional. These protective covers for the airbag
cushions are designed to open only when the
airbags are inflating.
• Do not use accessory seat covers or place objects
between you and the side airbags; the performance
could be adversely affected and/or objects could
be pushed into you, causing serious injury.
