The SABICs and SABs (Side Air Bags) are designed to activate in certain side impacts .
The Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) determines whether the deployment of the
Side Air Bags in a particular impact event is appropriate, based on the severity and type
of collision
.
The side impact sensors aid the ORC in determining the appropriate re-
sponse to impact events . The system is calibrated to deploy the Side Air Bags on the im-
pact side of the vehicle during impacts that require Side Air Bag occupant protection
.
In
side impacts, the Side Air Bags deploy independently; a left side impact deploys the left
Side Air Bags only and a right-side impact deploys the right Side Air Bags only
. Vehicle
damage by itself is not a good indicator of whether or not Side Air Bags should have de-
ployed
.
The Side Air Bags will not deploy in all side collisions, including some collisions at certain
angles, or some side collisions that do not impact the area of the passenger compart-
ment
. The Side Air Bags may deploy during angled or offset frontal collisions where the
front air bags deploy
.
Side Air Bags are a supplement to the seat belt restraint system . Side Air Bags deploy in
less time than it takes to blink your eyes
.
WARNING!
• Occupants, including children, who are up against or very close to Side Air Bags
can be seriously injured or killed
. Occupants, including children, should never lean
on or sleep against the door, side windows, or area where the side air bags inflate,
even if they are in an infant or child restraint
.
• Seat belts (and child restraints where appropriate) are necessary for your protec-
tion in all collisions
.
They also help keep you in position, away from an inflating Side
Air Bag
.
To get the best protection from the Side Air Bags, occupants must wear
their seat belts properly and sit upright with their backs against the seats . Children
must be properly restrained in a child restraint or booster seat that is appropriate
for the size of the child
.
WARNING!
• Side Air Bags need room to inflate . Do not lean against the door or window . Sit
upright in the center of the seat .
• Being too close to the Side Air Bags during deployment could cause you to be
severely injured or killed
.
• Relying on the Side Air Bags alone could lead to more severe injuries in a collision .
The Side Air Bags work with your seat belt to restrain you properly
.
In some colli-
sions, Side Air Bags won’t deploy at all
.
Always wear your seat belt even though
you have Side Air Bags .
