Deployment of front air bags
E00407501077
The front air bags ARE DESIGNED TO DEPLOY when…
The front air bags are designed to deploy when the vehicle suf-
fers a moderate to severe frontal impact. A typical condition is
shown in the illustration.
The front air bags will deploy if the severity of the impact is
above the designed threshold level, comparable to a collision at
approximately 25 km/h (16 mph) when impacting straight into
a solid wall that does not move or deform. If the severity of the
impact is below the above threshold level, the front air bags
may not deploy. However, this threshold speed will be consid-
erably higher if the vehicle strikes an object that absorbs the
impact by either deforming or moving (for example, another
stationary vehicle, pole or a guard rail).
As frontal collisions can easily move you out of position, it is
important always to wear the seat belts correctly. Your seat belt
will help to keep you at a safe distance from the steering wheel
and instrument panel during the initial stages of air bag deploy-
ment. The initial stage of air bag inflation is the most forceful,
and may cause a serious or fatal injury. Moreover, the seat belts
in your vehicle are your primary means of protection in a colli-
sion. The SRS (Supplemental Restraint System) air bags are
designed to provide additional protection. Therefore, for your
safety and the safety of all the occupants, make sure that the
seat belts are always worn correctly.
