The Safety Canopy
娂
is mounted to roof side-rail sheet metal, behind the
headliner, above the first and second row seats. The Safety Canopy
娂
is
designed to inflate between the side window area and occupants to
further enhance protection provided in side impact collisions and rollover
events.
The fact that the Safety Canopy
娂
did not activate in a collision does not
mean that something is wrong with the system. Rather, it means the
forces were not of the type sufficient to cause activation. The Safety
Canopy
娂
is designed to inflate in certain side impact collisions or
rollover events, not in rear impact, frontal or near-frontal collisions,
unless the collision causes sufficient lateral deceleration or rollover
likelihood.
Several Safety Canopy
娂
system components get hot
after inflation. Do not touch them
after inflation.
If the Safety Canopy
娂
system has deployed,
the Safety
Canopy
娂
will not function again unless replaced. The
Safety Canopy
娂
system (including the A, B and C pillar trim)
must be inspected and serviced by a qualified technician in
accordance with the vehicle service manual.
If the Safety
Canopy
娂
is not replaced, the unrepaired area will increase the risk of
injury in a collision.
Determining if the system is operational
The SRS uses a readiness light in the instrument cluster or a tone to
indicate the condition of the system. Refer to the
Airbag readiness
section in the
Instrument Cluster
chapter. Routine maintenance of the
side airbag is not required.
