•
The same warning light, electronic control and diagnostic unit as used
for the front airbags.
•
Two crash sensors located under the outboard side of the front seats,
attached near the floor.
•
Two crash sensors located at the base of the “C” pillars above the
wheel house.
•
An inflatable nylon bag (airbag) with a gas generator concealed behind
the outboard bolster of the driver and front passenger seatbacks.
•
A special seat cover to allow airbag deployment (front seats only).
Side air curtains and side air bags, in combination with seat belts, can
help reduce the risk of severe injuries in the event of a significant side
impact collision.
The side air curtains are mounted to the sheet metal above the first and
second row seats. In certain lateral collisions, the air curtain and
seat-mounted side air bag on the side affected by the collision will be
inflated, even if the respective seat is not occupied. The air curtain was
designed to inflate between the side window area and occupant to
further enhance the head protection provided to occupants in side
impact collisions. The seat-mounted side air bag was designed to inflate
between the door panel and occupant to further enhance the protection
provided occupants in side impact collision.
The side air curtain system SRS is designed to activate when the vehicle
sustains lateral deceleration sufficient to cause the sensors to close an
electrical circuit that initiates air curtain and seat-mounted side air bag
inflation.
The fact that the side air curtain and seat-mounted side air bag did not
inflate 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 side air curtain system is designed to inflate in side
impact collisions, not roll-over, rear impact, frontal or near-frontal
collisions, unless the collision causes sufficient lateral deceleration.
Several air bag system components get hot after inflation. Do not
touch them after inflation.
