Seat, seatbelt and SRS airbags

to deploy if the vehicle is struck from the

side or from behind, or if it rolls onto its

side or roof, or if it is involved in a low-

speed frontal collision.

1) First impact

2) Second impact

In an accident where the vehicle is impact-

ed more than once, the driver’s and/or

front passenger’s SRS frontal airbag(s)

will deploy only once on the first impact.

Example: In the case of a double collision,

first with another vehicle, then against a

concrete wall in immediate succession,

once either or both of the driver’s and front

passenger’s SRS frontal airbags is/are ac-

tivated on the first impact, it/they will not

be activated on the second impact.

SRS side airbag and SRS cur-

tain airbag

The SRS side airbag is stored in the door

side of each front seat seatback, which

bears an “SRS AIRBAG” label.

In a moderate to severe side impact colli-

sion, the SRS side airbag on the impacted

side of the vehicle deploys between the

occupant and the door panel and supple-

ments the seatbelt by reducing the impact

to the occupant’s chest and waist. The

SRS side airbag operates only for front

seat occupants.

The SRS curtain airbag on each side of

the cabin is stored in the roof side (be-

tween the front pillar and a point over the

rear seat). An “SRS AIRBAG” mark is lo-

cated at the top of each center pillar.

In a moderate to severe side impact colli-

sion, the SRS curtain airbag on the im-

pacted side of the vehicle deploys be-

tween the occupant and the side window

and supplements the seatbelt by reducing

the impact on the occupant's head.

In a rollover, SRS curtain airbags on both

sides of the vehicle deploy between the

occupant and the side window and sup-

plement the seatbelt by reducing the im-

pact to the occupant’s head.

In a 7-seater model vehicle, the SRS cur-

tain airbag does not operate for third-row

seat occupants.

The SRS side airbag and SRS cur-

tain airbag are designed as only a

supplement to the primary protec-

tion provided by the seatbelt. They

do not do away with the need to fas-

ten seatbelts. It is also important to

wear your seatbelt to help avoid in-

juries that can result when an occu-

pant is not seated in a proper up-

right position.
