Advanced Front Air Bag Features

The Advanced Front Air Bag system has multistage driver
and front passenger air bags. This system provides output
appropriate to the severity and type of collision as deter-
mined by the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC), which
may receive information from the front impact sensors.

The first stage inflator is triggered immediately during an
impact that requires air bag deployment. This low output
is used in less severe collisions. A higher energy output is
used for more severe collisions.

WARNING!

No objects should be placed over or near the air bag

on the instrument panel, because any such objects
could cause harm if the vehicle is in a collision severe
enough to cause the air bag to inflate.
