Side Airbags
The side airbags help protect the torso and pelvis of the driver or a passenger during
a moderate-to-severe side impact.
The side airbags are housed in the outside
edge of the driver’s and passenger’s seat-
backs.
Both are marked
SIDE AIRBAG
.
When the sensors detect a moderate-to-
severe side impact, the control unit signals the
side airbag on the impact side to immediately
inflate.

Make sure you and your passenger always sit upright.
Leaning into the path of a side airbag can prevent the
airbag from deploying properly and increases your
risk of serious injury.
Do not attach accessories on or near the side airbags.
They can interfere with the proper operation of the
airbags, or hurt someone if an airbag inflates.
Do not cover or replace the seat-back covers without
consulting an authorized Acura NSX dealer.
Improperly replacing or covering seat-back covers can
prevent your side airbags from properly deploying
during a side impact.
