The  airbags  will  operate  only  when  the  ignition
switch is in the “ON” or “START” position.
When the airbag control unit detect an impact of suf-
ficient frontal or side force, it sends an ignition sig-
nal  to  the  airbag  modules  to  ignite  materials  in  the
inflator and generate gas and inflate the airbags.
The  airbags  deployment  produces  a  sudden,  loud
noise,  and  releases  some  smoke  and  powder,  but
these  conditions  are  not  injurious,  and  do  not  indi-
cate  a  fire  in  the  vehicle.  People  with  respiratory
problems  may  feel  some  temporary  irritation  from
chemicals  used  to  produce  the  deployment;  open
the  windows  after  airbag  deployment,  if  safe  to  do
so.
The  airbags  deflate  very  rapidly  after  deployment,
so there is little danger of obscured vision.
The time required from the sensors detecting an im-
pact  to  deflation  of  the  airbags  after  deployment  is
shorter than a blink of an eye.CAUTIONl Airbags  inflate  at  an  extremely  rapid
speed.  In  certain  situations,  contact  with
inflating  airbags  can  result  in  abrasions,
light cuts, bruises, and the like.Front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF
switch E00410100184
The  front  passenger’s  airbag  ON-OFF  switch  can
be  used  to  disable  the  front  passenger’s  airbag.  If
you  have  a  rearward  facing  child  restraint  system
that cannot be fitted to any seat other than the front
passenger seat, be sure to turn OFF the front passen-
ger’s airbag ON-OFF switch before using it. (Refer
to “To turn an airbag off” on page 2-30.)
The front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF switch is lo-
cated in the glove box.WARNINGl To reduce risk of serious or fatal injury:
•Always  remove  the  key  from  the  igni-
tion  switch  before  operating  a  front
passenger’s  airbag  ON-OFF  switch.
Failure to do so could adversely affect
the airbag performance.
• Wait at least 60 seconds to operate the
front  passenger’s  airbag  ON-OFF
switch  after  turning  the  ignition
switch  from  “ON”  position  to
“LOCK” position.
The  SRS  airbag  system  is  designed  to
retain enough voltage to deploy the air-
bag.WARNING• Always remove the key from the front
passenger’s airbag ON-OFF switch af-
ter  operating  that  switch.  Failure  to
do  so  could  lead  to  improper  position
of  the  front  passenger’s  airbag  ON-
OFF switch.To turn an airbag off  E00410600219
To turn an airbag off, follow these steps:
1.Insert the key into the key opening of the ap-
propriate  front  passenger’s  airbag  ON-OFF
switch,  and  turn  that  airbag  ON-OFF  switch
to the “OFF” position.
2. Remove the key from the key opening of the
front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF switch.
3. Insert  the  key  into  the  ignition  switch,  and
turn the ignition to the “ON” position.
The  front  passenger’s  airbag  OFF  indication  lamp
will  stay  on  to  show  that  the  front  passenger’s  air-
bag  is  not  operational.  ( “Front  passenger’s  airbag
OFF indication lamp” on page 2-31)

WARNING•The indication lamp does not come on
when the front passenger’s airbag ON-
OFF switch is turned OFF.
• The indication lamp stays on when the front  passenger’s  airbag  ON-OFF
switch is turned ON.WARNINGl Do not fit any accessory that makes the in-
dication  lamp  impossible  to  see,  and  do
not cover the indication lamp with a stick-
er. You would not be able to verify the sta-
tus of the passenger airbag system.Driver’s and passenger’s front airbag
system E00407400330
The driver’s airbag is located under the padded cov-
er in the middle of the steering wheel. The front pas-
senger’s airbag is contained in the instrument panel
above the glove box.
The  driver’s  airbag  and  the  front  passenger’s  air-
bag are designed to inflate at the same time even if
the passenger seat is not occupied.Deployment of front airbags E00407501354The front airbags ARE DESIGNED TO DEPLOY

Because  the  front  airbags  do  not  protect  the  occu-
pant in all types of collisions, be sure to always prop-
erly wear your seat belts.Rear end collisionsSide collisionsVehicle rolls onto its side or roof
The front airbags MAY DEPLOY when…
The  front  airbags  may  deploy  if  the  bottom  of  the
vehicle suffers a moderate-to-severe impact (under-
carriage damage).
Examples  of  some  typical  conditions  are  shown  in
the illustration.
 
Because  the  front  airbags  may  deploy  in  certain
types  of  unexpected  impacts  as  shown  in  the  illus-
tration  that  can  easily  move  you  out  of  position,  it
is  important  to  always  properly  wear  your  seat
belts. Your seat belts will help keep you a safe dis-
tance from the steering wheel and instrument panel
during  the  initial  stages  of  airbag  deployment.  The
initial  stage  of  airbag  inflation  is  the  most  forceful
and  can  possibly  cause  serious  or  fatal  injuries  if
you contact it at this stage.Collision with an elevated median/island or kerbVehicle travels over a deep hole/potholeVehicle drives down a steep slope and hits the ground
WARNINGl Do  not  attach  anything  to  the  steering
wheel padded cover, such as trim materi-
al,  badges,  etc.  It  might  strike  and  injure
an occupant if the airbag inflates.
l Do  not  set  anything  on,  or  attach  any-
thing  to,  the  instrument  panel  above  the
glove box. It might strike and injure an oc-
cupant if the airbag inflates.WARNINGl Do  not  attach  accessories  to,  or  put  them
in  front  of,  the  windscreen.  These  objects
could  restrict  the  airbag  inflation,  or
strike  and  injure  an  occupant  if  the  air-
bags inflate.
l Do  not  put  packages,  pets  or  other  ob-
jects  between  the  airbags  and  the  driver
or  front  passenger.  It  could  affect  airbag
performance,  or  could  cause  injury  when
the airbag inflates.
