Seat, seatbelt and SRS airbags
CAUTION
Do not touch the SRS side airbag
system components around the
front seat seatback with bare hands
right after deployment. Doing so can
cause burns because the compo-
nents can be very hot as a result of
deployment.
The SRS side airbag is designed to
deploy in the event of an accident invol-
ving a moderate to severe side impact
collision. It is basically not designed to
deploy in a lesser side impact. Also, it is
basically not designed to deploy in frontal
or rear impacts because SRS side airbag
deployment would not help the occupant
in those situations.
Each SRS side airbag is designed to
function on a one-time-only basis.
SRS side airbag deployment depends on
the level of force experienced in the
passenger compartment during a side
impact collision. That level differs from
one type of collision to another, and it may
have no bearing on the visible damage
done to the vehicle itself.
! Example of the type of accident in
which the SRS side airbag will most
likely deploy.
A severe side impact near the front seat
activates the SRS side airbag.
