SRS Air Bags
Front Passenger Air Bag
The front passenger air bag is mounted in the front passenger instrument panel.
The infl ation mechanism for the front passenger air bag is the same as the driver's air bag, as
mentioned above.
For more details about air bag deployment, refer to "SRS Air Bag Deployment Criteria"
(page 2-55 ).
Side Air Bags
*
The side air bags are mounted in the outboard sides of the front seatbacks.
When the air bag crash sensors detect a side impact of greater than moderate force, the
system infl ates the side air bag only on the side in which the vehicle was hit. The side
air bag infl ates quickly to reduce injury to the driver or front passenger's chest caused by
directly hitting interior parts such as a door or window.
For more details about air bag deployment, refer to "SRS Air Bag Deployment Criteria"
(page 2-55 ).
