Deployment of front airbags

The front airbags and driver’s knee airbag are designed to
deploy when the vehicle suffers a moderate to severe frontal
impact. Typical situations are shown in the illustration above.
The front airbags and driver’s knee airbag are designed to
deploy only in certain moderate to severe frontal collisions
within the shaded area between the arrows in the illustration to
the right.
The front airbags and driver’s knee airbag will deploy if the
impact to the vehicle’s main structure is above a specific
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 threshold level, the front airbags
and driver’s knee airbag 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 injury or death if you are close to the deploy-
ing airbag. Accordingly, it is important that you always wear
the available seat belt.
