Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) - airbag

Seat and restraint systems

The front airbags are designed to deploy
when the vehicle suffers a moderate to severe
frontal impact. A typical condition is shown
in the illustration to the left.
The front airbags are designed to deploy only
in certain moderate to severe frontal colli-
sions within the shaded area between the
arrows in the illustration to the right.
The front airbags will deploy if the impact to
the vehicle’s main structure is above a spe-
cific threshold level. The threshold level is
approximately 15 mph (25 km/h) for a frontal
collision straight into a solid flat wall that
does not bend or deform. If the impact to the
vehicle’s main structure is below this thresh-
old level, the front airbags may not deploy.
This threshold level may also be higher if the
vehicle hits something that absorbs the
impact, either by bending or moving (for
example, another stationary vehicle, a pole or
a guard rail).
The beginning stage of airbag inflation is the
most forceful, and can cause serious injuries
or death if you are too close to the deploying
airbag. Accordingly, it is important that you
always wear the available seat belt.
In certain types of front collisions, the front
airbags may not deploy, even if the deforma-
tion of the body seems to be large, because
the vehicle’s body structure is designed to
absorb the impact and deform in order to help
protect the occupants. Some typical situations
where the front airbags may not deploy are
shown in the illustrations.
Because the front airbags do not protect the
occupant in all types of frontal collisions, be
sure to always wear your seat belts properly.
The front airbags are not designed to deploy
in situations where they cannot provide pro-
tection to the occupants.
