
Conditions under which the SRS airbags may deploy (inflate), other than a colli-
sion
The SRS front airbags and SRS curtain shield airbags may also deploy if a seri-
ous impact occurs to the underside of your vehicle. Some examples are shown in
the illustration.

Types of collisions that may not deploy the SRS airbags (SRS front airbags)
The SRS front airbags do not generally inflate if the vehicle is involved in a side
or rear collision, if it rolls over, or if it is involved in a low-speed frontal colli-
sion. But, whenever a collision of any type causes sufficient forward deceleration
of the vehicle, deployment of the SRS front airbags may occur.
