Airbags
Your vehicle is equipped with three types of airbags: front airbags, side\
airbags, and
side curtain airbags.
Front Airbags (SRS)
The front SRS airbags inflate in a moderate-to-severe frontal collisio\
n to help
protect the head and chest of the driver and/or passenger. They are housed in the
center of the steering wheel for the driver, and in the dashboard for the passenger.
Both airbags are marked SRS AIRBAG.
SRS (Supplemental Restraint System) indicates that the airbags are des\
igned to
supplement seat belts, not replace them. Seat belts are the occupant’\
s primary
restraint system.
Advanced AirbagsYour front airbags have advanced features to help reduce the likelihood o\
f airbag-
related injuries to smaller occupants.
The driver’s advanced front airbag system includes
a seat position sensor. If the seat is too far forward,
the airbag inflates with less force, regardless of the
severity of the impact.
If there is a problem with the driver’s seat position
sensor, the SRS indicator will come on and the
airbag will inflate with full (normal) force, regardless
of the driver’s seating position.
The passenger’s advanced front airbag system
has weight sensors. Although Honda recommends
against carrying an infant or small child in the
passenger seat, if the sensors detect the weight
of a child (up to 65 lbs or 29 kg), the system will
automatically turn off the passenger’s front airbag.
For both advanced front airbags to work properly:
•

Do not spill any liquid on or under the seats.
•


Do not put any object under the passenger’
s seat.
•

Make sure any objects are positioned properly on the floor
. Improperly
positioned objects can interfere with the advanced airbag sensors.
•

All occupants should sit upright and wear their seat belts properly
.
•

Do not place any cover over any part of the passenger side dashboard.

Side AirbagsThe side airbags help protect the upper torso of the driver or a passeng\
er during
a moderate-to-severe side impact. They are housed in the outside edge of\
the
driver’s and passenger’s seat-backs. Both are marked SIDE AIRBAG.
Side Curtain AirbagsSide curtain airbags help protect the heads of the driver and passenger \
during a
moderate-to-severe side impact.
The side curtain airbags are located in the ceiling
above the side windows on both sides of the
vehicle.
The side curtain airbags are designed to deploy in a
moderate-to-severe side impact.
To get the best protection from the side curtain
airbags, occupants should wear their seat belts
properly and sit upright and well back in their seats.
Do not attach any objects to the side windows or
roof pillars, as they can interfere with the proper
operation of the side curtain airbags.
When side curtain airbags deploy in a frontal collision
One or both side curtain airbags may inflate in a moderate-to-severe a\
ngled
frontal collision.
Airbag System IndicatorsIf a problem occurs in the airbag system, the SRS indicator comes on and\
a
message appears in the multi-information display.
SRS (Supplemental Restraint System) indicator
If the indicator comes on at any other time besides
vehicle start-up, or does not come on at all, have the
system checked by a dealer as soon as possible. If
you don’t, your airbags and seat belt tensioners may
not work properly when they are needed.
Ignoring the SRS indicator can result in serious injury or death if the \
airbag
systems or tensioners do not work properly.
Have your vehicle checked by a dealer as soon as possible if the SRS
indicator alerts you to a possible problem.

Passenger Airbag Off indicator
The indicator comes on to alert you that the
passenger’s front airbag has been turned off. This
occurs when the front passenger’s weight sensors
detect 65 lbs (29 kg) or less, the weight of an infant
or small child, on the seat.
Your vehicle is not recommended for child passengers. Never put a rear-facing
child seat in this vehicle.
Objects placed on the seat can also cause the indicator to come on.
If the passenger‘s seat is empty, the passenger’s front airbag will not deploy and
the indicator will not come on.
If the indicator comes on with no occupant or objects in the passenger’\
s seat,
something may be interfering with the weight sensors, such as:
•

An object hanging on the seat or in the seat-back pocket.
•


An object pressing against the rear of the seat-back.
•


The seat or seat-back is forced back against cargo on the rear trays or \
floor
behind it.
•


An object placed under the passenger’
s seat.
If none of these conditions exist, have your vehicle checked by a dealer\
as soon
as possible.
The passenger airbag off indicator may go on and off repeatedly if the t\
otal weight
on the seat is near the airbag cutoff threshold.
Side Airbag Off indicator
This indicator comes on if the passenger’s side
airbag has been turned off because the passenger
is too small to be sitting in the passenger’s seat, is
slouching or not sitting upright, or has leaned into
the airbag’s deployment path.

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 inflated, the control unit and other related parts mu\
st be replaced.
Similarly, once an automatic seat belt tensioner has been activated, it must be
replaced.
When the vehicle has been in a moderate-to-severe collision
Even if the airbags did not inflate, have your dealer inspect the foll\
owing: the
driver’s seat position sensor, weight sensors in the passenger’s seat, 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 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. Fo\
r Canadian
vehicles, call Honda Canada Customer Relations at (888) 946-6329.
Important Facts About Your AirbagsAlways wear your seat belt properly, and sit upright and as far back from the
steering wheel as possible while allowing full control of the vehicle. A\
passenger
should move their seat as far back from the dashboard as possible.
Do not place hard or sharp objects between yourself and a front airbag. Carrying
hard or sharp objects on your lap, or driving with a pipe or other sharp\
object in
your mouth, can result in injuries if your front airbag inflates.
Do not attach or place objects on the front airbag covers. Objects on the covers
marked SRS AIRBAG could interfere with the proper operation of the airbags or be
propelled inside the vehicle and hurt someone if the airbags inflate.
Do not attach accessories on or near the side airbags. They can interfere with the
proper operation of the airbags, or hurt someone if an airbag inflates\
.
Do not attach any objects to the side windows or roof pillars. They can interfere
with the proper operation of the side curtain airbags.
Do not cover or replace the front seat-back covers. This can prevent your side
airbags from properly deploying during a side impact.
An open glove box can cause serious injury to your passenger in a crash,\

even if the passenger is wearing the seat belt.
Always keep the glove box closed while driving.
WARNING
Child Safety
Each year, many children are injured or killed in vehicle crashes because they are
either unrestrained or not properly restrained. In fact, vehicle collisi\
ons are the
number one cause of death of children ages 12 and under.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and Transport Canada
recommend that all children ages 12 and under be properly restrained in \
a rear seat.
Some states or provinces/territories have laws restricting where childre\
n may ride.
To reduce the number of child deaths and injuries, every state, Canadian \
province
and territory requires that infants and children be properly restrained \
when they ride
in a vehicle.
Since this vehicle does not have a back seat, Honda recommends that you \
do not
carry a child, age 12 or under, as a passenger because:•

An inflating front or side airbag can injure or kill a child sitting i\
n the pas
senger’s
seat.
•

A child in the passenger’
s seat is more likely to interfere with the driver’s ability
to safely control the vehicle.
•

Statistics show that children of all sizes and ages are safer when they \
ar
e
properly restrained in a rear seat. Because this vehicle does not have a\
rear
seat, we recommend that you do not carry a child age 12 or under in this\
vehicle.
•

Any child who is too small to wear a seat belt correctly must be restrai\
n
ed in an
approved child seat that is properly secured to the vehicle using either\
the lap
belt portion of the lap/shoulder belt.
In addition: •

Never hold a child on your lap because it is impossible to protect them \
in t
he
event of a collision.
•

Never put a seat belt over yourself and a child. During a crash, the bel\
t w
ould
likely press deep into the child and cause serious or fatal injuries.
•

Never let two children use the same seat belt. Both children could be ve\
r
y
seriously injured in a crash.
•

Do not allow children to operate the doors, windows, or seat adjusters.
•


Do not leave children in the vehicle unattended, especially in hot weath\
er when
the inside of the vehicle can get hot enough to kill them. They could al\
so act

ivate
vehicle controls, causing it to move unexpectedly.
Allowing a child to play with a seat belt or wrap one around their neck \
can
result in serious injury or death.
Instruct children not to play with any seat belt and make sure any unuse\
d
seat belt a child can reach is buckled, fully retracted, and locked.
