Side Impacts
The 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 response to
impact events. The system is calibrated to
deploy the Side Air Bags on the impact side
of the vehicle during impacts that require
Side Air Bag occupant protection. In side
impacts, the Side Air Bags deploy inde -
pendently; 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
deployed.
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
compartment. 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.
NOTE:
Air bag covers may not be obvious in the inte -
rior trim, but they will open during air bag
deployment.
WARNING!

Occupants, including children, who are
up against or very close to Side Air Bags
can be seriously injured or killed. Occu -
pants, 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
protection 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, occu -
pants 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 colli -
sion. The Side Air Bags work with your
seat belt to restrain you properly. In
some collisions, Side Air Bags won’t
deploy at all. Always wear your seat belt
even though you have Side Air Bags.
