Side airbag (SIPS)
In a side impact collision a large proportion of the collision force is transferred by the SIPS(Side Impact Protection System) to beams,pillars, the floor, the roof and other structuralparts of the body. The side airbags at the driv-er's and front passenger seats protect thechest area and the hip and are an importantpart of the SIPS.
G032949
The SIPS bag system consists of two main components, side airbag and sensors. Theside airbags are located in the front seatbackrests. A sufficiently violent collision trips the sensors and the side airbags are inflated. The airbaginflates between the occupant and the doorpanel and thereby cushions the initial impact.The airbag deflates when compressed by thecollision. The side airbag is normally onlydeployed on the side of the collision.
