•
Observe the instructions on the warning
label pasted on the side of the door. Do
not lean your body against the door side
equipped with side airbags during
driving.

Side curtain airbag *
Side curtain airbags are installed in the left and
right sides of the roof respectively (see the dotted
dash area), where "CURTAIN AIRBAG" is the
airbag sign.
In the event of a severe side collision, the side
curtain airbags on the side where the car collides
will be triggered by the system and deploy rapidly
to assist the seat belts in protecting the driver and
passengers.
In certain collision accidents, the system may
simultaneously trigger other airbags.
The side curtain airbags might not be triggered in
the following cases:
–
The engine start/stop button is at "ACC" or
"OFF" position.
–
100% frontal collision.
–
Minor side collision.
–
Rear collision.
–
Other special circumstances.
NOTE
The word "minor" refers to the extent with
respect to the car SRS controller and has
nothing to do with the damage of the car.
WARNING
► The front seats are equipped with
side airbags.
► Please do not lean against the
car door.
