There is a Supplemen
tal Restraint System
(SRS) warning light on the instrument panel.The system checks itself every time the igni-tion switch is turned to the “ON” position orthe operation mode is put in ON. The SRSwarning light will come on for several sec-
onds and then go out. This is normal andmeans the system is working properly.If there is a problem
involving one or more of
the SRS components, the warning light willcome on and stay on. At
the same time, the
warning display will appear on the informa-tion screen in the multi information display(Type 1 only).The SRS warning light/display is shared bythe SRS airbag and the se
at belt pre-tensioner
system.

The front airbags and driver’s knee airbag aredesigned to deploy when
the vehicle suffers a
moderate to severe fro
ntal impact. A typical
condition is shown in th
e illustration to the
left.The front airbags and driver’s knee airbag aredesigned to deploy only in certain moderateto severe frontal collisions within the shadedarea between the arrows in the illustration tothe right.
The front airbags and driver’s knee airbagwill deploy if the impact to the vehicle’s mainstructure is above a sp
ecific threshold level.
The threshold level is
approximately 15 mph
(25 km/h) for a frontal collision straight into asolid flat wall that does not bend or deform. Ifthe impact to the vehicle’s main structure isbelow this threshold le
vel, the front airbags
and driver’s knee airbag may not deploy. Thisthreshold level may also
be higher if the vehi-
cle hits something that absorbs the impact,either by bending or moving (for example,
another stationary vehi
cle, a pole or a guard
rail).The initial stage of airbag inflation is themost forceful, and can
cause serious injury or
death if you are too clos
e to the deploying air-
bag. Accordingly, it
is important that you
always wear the available seat belt.

In certain types of front collisions, the frontairbags and driver’s knee airbag may notdeploy, even if the deformation of the bodyseems to be large, because the vehicle’s bodystructure is designed to
absorb the impact and
deform in order to help
protect the occupants.
Some typical situations where the front air-bags and driver’s knee airbag may not deployare shown in the illustrations.Since the front airbags and driver’s knee air-bag do not protect the oc
cupant in all types of
frontal collisions, be su
re to always wear your
seat belts properly.

The front airbags and driver’s knee airbagmay deploy if the underside of the vehiclesuffers a moderate to
severe impact (under-
carriage impact). Some typical situations areshown in the illustration.Since the front airbags and driver’s knee air-bag may deploy in ce
rtain types of unex-
pected impacts, as show
n in the illustrations,
and these unexpected impacts can move youout of position, it is
important to always wear
your seat belts properly. When worn properly,seat belts can help maintain your distancefrom the airbags when they begin to inflate.The initial stage of airbag inflation is themost forceful and can cause serious injury ordeath if you are close to the deploying airbag.The front airbags and driver’s knee airbag MAY DEPLOY when …

WA R N I N GDo not attach anything to the steeringwheel’s padded cover, such as trim mate-rial, badges, etc. These could strike andinjure an occupant if
the airbag inflates.
Do not set anything on, or attach anythingto, the instrument
panel above the glove
compartment. Such items could strike andinjure an occupant if
the airbag inflates.
WA R N I N GDo not attach accessories to, or put themin front of, the wind
shield. They could
restrict the airbag infl
ation, or strike and
injure an occupant, when the airbaginflates.

The seat belts in your
vehicle are your pri-
mary means of protection in an accident. TheSRS side airbags and curtain airbags aredesigned to provide
additional protection.
Therefore, for your safety and the safety of alloccupants, be sure to always wear your seatbelts properly.In certain types of side
collisions, the side air-
bag and curtain airbag
may not deploy, even
if the deformation of the body seems to belarge, because the vehicle’s body structure isdesigned to absorb the impact and to deformin order to help protect the occupants. Thereare also cases where the side airbag and cur-tain airbag may not deploy at the same time,depending on the location of the impact.Some typical situations
where the side air-
bags and curtain airb
ags may not deploy are
shown in the illustrations.
Since the side airbags and curtain airbags donot protect the occupant in all types of sidecollisions, be sure to
always wear the seat
belts properly.
The side airbag and curtain airbag are notdesigned to deploy in situations where theycannot provide protec
tion to the occupants.
Some typical situations are shown in theillustration.
