Airbags
Airbag System Components
The front, front side, and side curtain airbags are deployed according to the direction and severity of the impact. The airbag system includes:
Two SRS (Supplemental Restraint
System) front airbags. The driver’s
airbag is stored in the center of the
steering wheel; the passenger’s airbag
is stored in the dashboard. Both are
marked “SRS AIRBAG.”
Two side airbags, one for the driver
and one for a passenger. The airbags
are stored in the outer edges of the
seat-backs. Both are marked “SIDE
A I R B A G .”
Two side curtain airbags, one for each
side of the vehicle. The airbags are
stored in the ceiling, above the side
windows. The front and rear pillars
are marked “SIDE CURTAIN AIRBAG.”
An electronic control unit that
continually monitors and records
information about the sensors,
the airbag activators, the seat belt
tensioners, and driver and passenger
seat belt use when the ignition
switch is in ON
II. It also includes
emergency backup power in case
your vehicle’s electrical system is
disconnected in a crash.
Automatic seat belt tensioners. The
driver’s and passenger’s seat belts
incorporate sensors that detect
whether or not they are fastened.
A driver’s seat position sensor that
monitors the distance of the seat from
the front airbag. If the seat is too far
forward, the airbag will inflate with
less force.
Weight sensors in the passenger’s
seat. The passenger’s airbag will be
turned off if the weight on the seat is
65 lbs (29 kg) or less (the weight of an
infant or small child).
Impact sensors that can detect a
moderate to severe front or side
collision.
An indicator on the dashboard that
alerts you that the passenger’s front
airbag has been turned off.
Sensors that can detect if a child
or small statured adult is in the
deployment path of the passenger’s
side airbag.
An indicator on the instrument panel
that alerts you to a possible problem
with your airbag system or seat belt
tensioners.
An indicator on the instrument panel
that alerts you that the passenger’s
side airbag has been turned off.

Child Safety Safety of Infants and Small Children
7. Make sure the child seat is firmly secured by rocking it forward and back and side to side; little movement should be felt.
Adding Security with a Tether

■
A tether anchorage point is provided behind the passenger seat. A child seat with a tether can be installed, so long as the base of the child seat is secured using a seat belt.
Route the tether strap through the head
1.
restraint legs. Make sure the strap is not twisted. Secure the tether strap hook onto the
2.
anchor. Tighten the tether strap as instructed by
3.
the child seat manufacturer.
Installing a Child Seat with a Seat Belt
A child seat that is not properly secured will not
adequately protect a child in a crash and may cause injury to the child or another vehicle occupant. To deactivate a lockable retractor, release the buckle and allow the seat belt to wind up all the way.
Adding Security with a Tether
Since a tether can provide additional security to the lap/shoulder seat belt installation, we recommend using a tether whenever one is available.
