Safe Driving
The front, front side, and side curtain 
airbags are deployed according to the 
direction and severity of impact. Both side 
curtain airbags are deployed in a rollover. 
The airbag system includes:
aTwo 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.
bTwo side airbags, one for the driver and 
one for a front passenger. The airbags are 
stored in the outer edges of the seat-
backs. Both are marked  SIDE AIRBAG.
cTwo side curtain ai rbags, 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 .
dAn 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 crash event the 
unit can record such information.
eAutomatic 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.
fA driver’s seat position sensor. This 
sensor determines the optimal force at 
which the airbag will deploy in a crash.
gWeight sensors in the front passenger’s 
seat. The front passenger’s airbag will be 
turned off if the weight on the seat is 
approximately 65 lbs (29 kg) or less (the 
weight of an infant or small child).
hImpact sensors that can detect a 
moderate-to-severe front or side impact.
iAn indicator on the dashboard that alerts 
you that the front passenger’s front 
airbag has been turned off.
jAn indicator on the instrument panel that 
alerts you to a possible problem with your 
airbag system or seat belt tensioners.
kA rollover sensor that can detect if your 
vehicle is about to ro ll over and signal the 
control unit to deploy both side curtain 
airbags.

Safe DrivingAirbags can pose serious hazards. To do  their job, airbags must inflate with 
tremendous force. So, while airbags help save lives, they can cause burns, bruises, 
and other minor injuries, sometimes even fatal ones if occupants are not wearing 
their seat belts properly and sitting correctly.
What you should do:  Always wear your seat belt  properly, and sit upright and as 
far back from the steering wheel as possi ble while allowing full control of the 
vehicle. A front passenger should move their seat as far back from the dashboard as 
possible.
Remember, however, that no safety system  can prevent all injuries or deaths that 
can occur in a severe crash,  even when seat belts are properly worn and the airbags 
deploy.
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 in juries if your front airbag inflates.
Do not attach or place object s 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.
■Important Facts About Your Airbags1 Important Facts About Your Airbags
Do not attempt to deactivate your airbags. Together, 
airbags and seat belts pr ovide the best protection.
When driving, keep hand s and arms out of the 
deployment path of the front airbag by holding each 
side of the steering wheel.  Do not cross an arm over 
the airbag cover.
