Before driving
CAUTION
SRS airbag
NEVER INSTALL A REARWARD FACING CHILD SEAT IN THE FRONT
SEAT. DOING SO RISKS SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH TO THE CHILD
BY PLACING THE CHILD’S HEAD TOO CLOSE TO THE SRS AIRBAG.
Never allow a child to stand up or kneel on the front passenger’s seat, or
never hold a child on your lap or in your arms. The SRS airbag deploys
with considerable force and can injure or even kill the child.
A deploying SRS airbag releases hot gas. Occupants could get burned if
they come into direct contact with the hot gas.
Put children in the REAR seat properly
restrained at all times in a child restraint
device or in a seat belt, whichever is
appropriate for the child’s age, height
and weight. The SRS airbag deploys
with considerable speed and force and
can injure or even kill children, espe-
cially if they are not restrained or
improperly restrained. Because chil-
dren are lighter and weaker than adults,
their risk of being injured from deploy-
ment is greater.
Secure ALL types of child restraint
devices (including forward facing child
seats) in the REAR seats at all times.
According to accident statistics, chil-
dren are safer when properly restrained
in the rear seating positions than in the
front seating positions.
For instructions and precautions con-
cerning the child restraint system, refer
to “Child restraint systems”. (P. 133)

108 1-7. Safety information
NOTICE
When the SRS airbag deploys
When the SRS airbag deploys, some smoke will be released. This smoke
could cause breathing problems for people with a history of asthma or other
breathing trouble. If you or your passengers have breathing problems after
SRS airbag deploys, get fresh air promptly.

110 1-7. Safety information
The main SRS airbag system components are shown above. The
SRS airbag system is controlled by the airbag control module. The
airbag control module consists of an airbag sensor.
In certain types of severe front or side impacts, the SRS airbag sys-
tem triggers the airbag inflators. A chemical reaction in the inflators
quickly fills the airbags with non-toxic gas to help restrain the motion
of the occupants. Door impact sensor (left-

Before driving
SRS front airbag
The driver’s SRS front airbag is stowed in the center portion of the steering
wheel. The driver’s knee airbag is stowed under the steering column. The
passenger’s SRS front airbag is stowed near the top of the dashboard under
an “SRS AIRBAG” mark.
In a moderate to severe front collision, the following components deploy.
SRS front airbag for driver
SRS front airbag for front passenger
Knee airbag for driver
These components supplement the seat belts by reducing the impact to the
occupant’s head, chest and knees.
If the SRS airbags deploy (inflate)
Bruising and slight abrasions may result from contact with a deploying
(inflating) SRS airbag.
A loud noise and white powder will be emitted.
Parts of the airbag module (steering wheel hub, airbag cover and inflator)
as well as the front seats, parts of the front and rear pillars, and roof side
rails, may be hot for several minutes. The airbag itself may also be hot.
The windshield may crack.
Front-seat passenger airbag manual cut off switch
The passenger-side front airbag can be deactivated by the cut off switch
located in the instrumental panel side. When the cut off switch is turned to
the deactivation mode the passenger-side front airbag becomes deacti-
vated. When the cutoff switch is turned to the activation mode the passen-
ger-side front airbag becomes active to deploy. While the passenger-side
front airbag is active the A/B ON indicator is illuminated.

114 1-7. Safety information
The SRS airbag can function only when the engine switch is in the “ON”
position (vehicles without a smart entry & start system) or when the
“ENGINE START STOP” switch is in IGNITION ON mode (vehicles with a
smart entry & start system).
If the front sub sensors located on both the right and left sides at the front of
the vehicle and the impact sensors in the airbag control module detect a cer-
tain predetermined amount of force during a front collision, the control mod-
ule sends signals to the front airbag modules instructing them to inflate the
SRS front airbags. Then both airbag modules produce gas, which instantly
inflates driver’s and passenger’s SRS front airbags. The knee airbag is also
inflated in combination with the SRS front airbags.
After deployment, the SRS airbags immediately start to deflate so that the
driver’s vision is not obstructed. The time required from detecting impact to
the deflation of the SRS airbag after deployment is shorter than the blink of
an eye.
Although it is highly unlikely that the SRS airbag would activate in a non-
accident situation, should it occur, the SRS airbag will deflate quickly, not
obscuring vision and will not interfere with the driver's ability to maintain con-
trol of the vehicle.
When the SRS airbag deploys, a sudden, fairly loud inflation noise will be
heard and some smoke will be released. These occurrences are normal
result of the deployment. This smoke does not indicate a fire in the vehicle.
