Supplemental Restraint System
How the Driver's Airbag
Works
If you ever have a severe frontal
collision, your airbag will instantly
inflate to help protect your head
and chest.
When the airbag inflates, you may
hear a fairly loud noise and you
might see smoke or powder. This is
normal; it is caused by the inflation
of the airbag.
To do its job, the airbag inflates
with considerable force. So, while it
can reduce serious injuries and
even save your life, the airbag
might cause some facial abrasions
or other injuries. For this reason,
you should always sit as far back
from the steering wheel as comfort-
able while still maintaining control.
After the bag completely inflates, it
immediately starts deflating so it
won't interfere with your visibility,
ability to steer, or ability to operate
other controls. The total time for
inflation and deflation takes less
than a fraction of a second. You
may not even be aware that the
airbag has been fully inflated.
