1 Two SRS (Supplemental Restraint System) front airbags. The driver’s airbag
is stored in the center of the steering wheel; the front passenger’s airbag is stored in the dashboard. Both are marked SRS AIRBAG.
2 Two side airbags, one for the driver and one for the front passenger. The
airbags are stored in the outer edges of the seat-backs. Both are marked SIDE
AIRBAG .
3 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 .
4 An electronic control unit that, when the vehicle is on, continually monitors
information about the various impact sensors, seat and buckle sensors,
rollover sensor, airbag activators, seat belt tensioners, and other vehicle information. During a collision, the unit records such information.
5 Automatic front seat belt tensioners. In addition, the driver’s and front passenger’s seat belt buckles incorporate sensors that detect whether or not the belts are fastened.
6 A driver’s seat position sensor. If the seat is too far forward, the airbag will
inate with less force.
7 Weight sensors in the front passenger’s seat. The front passenger’s airbag will be turned off if the weight on the seat is about 65 lbs (29 kg) or less (the
weight of an infant or small child) or if the seat is empty.
8 Impact sensors that can detect a moderate-to-severe front or side impact.
9 An indicator on the dashboard that alerts you that the front passenger’s front airbag has been turned off.
Airbag System Components
Airbag Care
You do not need to, and should not, perform any maintenance on or replace any
airbag system components yourself. However, you should have your vehicle inspected by a dealer in the following situations:
When the airbags have deployed
If an airbag has inated, the control unit and other related parts must be replaced.
Similarly, once an automatic seat belt tensioner has been activated, it must be replaced.
You should always use new, genuine Honda parts to replace parts after an airbag
deployment. Used, salvaged, aftermarket, or grey-market parts may not work correctly in a crash.
When the vehicle has been in a moderate-to-severe collision
Even if the airbags did not inate, have your dealer inspect the following: the
driver’s seat position sensor, weight sensors in the passenger’s seat, front seat belt tensioners, and each seat belt that was worn during the crash.
Do not remove or modify a front seat without first consulting a dealer
This would likely disable or affect the proper operation of the driver’s seat position
sensor or the weight sensors in the passenger’s seat. If it is necessary to remove
or modify a front seat to accommodate a person with disabilities, contact a Honda
dealer. For U.S. vehicles, call Honda Automobile Customer Service at (800) 999-1009.
For Canadian vehicles, call Honda Canada Customer Relations at (888) 946-6329.
10 An indicator on the instrument panel that alerts you to a possible problem with the
airbag system or seat belt tensioners.
11 A rollover sensor that detects whether the vehicle is about to roll over and signal the control unit to deploy both side curtain airbags.
