How the System Works
In a frontal collision, the collision sensors
will detect rapid deceleration, and if the
controller judges that the deceleration rep-
resents a severe frontal collision, the con-
troller will trigger the inflators. The inflators
inflate the appropriate airbags with nitro-
gen or argon gas. The inflated airbags pro-
vide a cushion for your head and upper
body. The airbag inflates and deflates so
quickly that you may not even realize that it
has activated. The airbag will neither hin-
der your view nor make it harder to exit the
vehicle.
Airbags must inflate quickly and forcefully
in order to reduce the chance of serious or
fatal injuries. However, an unavoidable
consequence of the quick inflation is that
the airbag may irritate bare skin, such as
the facial area against a front airbag. Wash
off any residue as soon as possible to pre-
vent skin irritation. Also, upon inflation, a
loud noise will occur and some powder
and smoke will be released. These condi-
tions are not harmful and do not indicate a
fire in the vehicle. Be aware, however, that
some airbag components may be hot for a
while after inflation.
A seat belt helps keep you in the proper
position for maximum protection when an
airbag inflates. Adjust your seat as far
back as possible while still maintaining
control of the vehicle. Sit fully back in your
seat; sit up straight; do not lean over the
steering wheel or dashboard. Please refer
to the “Seat Adjustment” section and the
“Seat Belts and Child Restraint Systems”
in this section for details on proper seat
and seat belt adjustments.

EXAMPLE
WARNING
• The driver should not lean over the
steering wheel. The front passen-
ger should not rest his or her body
against the dashboard, or other-
wise get too close to the dash-
board. In these situations, the out-
of-position occupant would be too
close to an inflating airbag, and
may suffer severe injury.
• Do not attach any objects to, or
place any objects over, the steering
wheel or dashboard. Do not place
any objects between the airbag and
the driver or front passenger.
These objects may interfere with
airbag operation or may be pro-
pelled by the airbag in the event of
a collision. Also, these objects may
move when you start moving vehi-
cle or while vehicle is moving, they
may interfere with driver’s view or
safe driving. In each conditions
may cause severe injury.
• Do not strike or apply significant
levels of impact to the air bag com-
ponent areas. It can cause the air
bags to malfunction.
