Side and curtain air bags
Side and curtain air bags are
designed to inflate, when a side
impact is detected by the side impact
sensors, depending on an impact
intensity, a speed or angles.
Although the front air bags are
designed to inflate only in a frontal
collision, they also may inflate in
other types of collisions, when the
front impact sensors detect a suffi-
cient impact. Side impact and curtain
air bags are designed to inflate only
in a side impact collision, but they
may inflate in other collisions, when
the side impact sensors detect a suf-
ficient impact.
When the vehicle chassis is impact-
ed by a bump or an object on a rough
road, the air bags may deploy. Be
careful to avoid inadvertent air bag
deployment, while driving on a rough
road or on a surface not designed for
the vehicle traffic.
Air bag non-inflation conditions
• In a collision at a low speed, air
bags may not deploy. The air bags
are designed not to deploy in such
a case, as a seat belt can provide
enough protection.
• Front air bags are not designed to
inflate in a rear collision, because
occupants are forced to move
backwards by the impact. In this
case, inflated front air bags would
not be able to provide any addition-
al benefit.
