How does the air bag system
operate? 
 Air bags are activated (able toinflate if necessary) only when the
Engine Start/Stop button is turned
to the ON position or engine is run-
ning.
 The appropriate air bags inflate instantly in the event of a serious
frontal collision or side collision in
order to help protect the occupants
from serious physical injury.
 There is no single speed at which the air bags will inflate.
Generally, air bags are designed to
inflate based upon the severity of a
collision and its direction. These
two factors determine whether the
sensors produce an electronic
deployment/ inflation signal.
 Air bag deployment depends on a number of factors including vehicle
speed, angles of impact, and, the
density and stiffness of the vehi-
cles or objects which your vehicle
hits in the collision. The determin-
ing factors are not limited to those
mentioned above.  The front air bags will completely
inflate and deflate in an instant.
It is virtually impossible for you to
see the air bags inflate during an
accident.
It is much more likely that you will
simply see the deflated air bags
hanging out of their storage com-
partments after the collision.
 In addition to inflating in serious side collisions, side and/or curtain
air bags will inflate if the sensing
system detects a rollover.
 When a rollover is detected, side and/or curtain air bags will remain
inflated longer to help provide pro-
tection from ejection, especially
when used in conjunction with the
seat belts.  In order to help provide protection,
the air bags must inflate rapidly.
The speed of the air bag inflation is
a consequence of the extremely
short time in which to inflate the air
bag between the occupant and the
vehicle structures before the occu-
pant impacts those structures. This
speed of inflation reduces the risk
of serious or life-threatening
injuries and is thus a necessary
part of the air bag design.
However, air bag inflation can also
cause injuries which can include
facial abrasions, bruises and bro-
ken bones because the inflation
speed also causes the air bags to
expand with a great deal of force.
 There are even circumstances under which contact with the
steering wheel or passenger air
bag can cause fatal injuries,
especially if the occupant is
positioned excessively close to
the steering wheel or passenger
air bag.

WARNING 
 Blind-Spot View  Monitor(BVM) system is a supplemen-
tal system only. It is the
responsibility of the driver to
always check the area around
the vehicle before and while
making turns or moving
lanes.
 ALWAYS look around your vehicle to make sure there are
no objects or obstacles
before moving the vehicle in
any direction to prevent a col-
lision.
 Objects are closer than they appear. Failure to visually
confirm that it is safe to
change lanes before doing so
may result in a crash and seri-
ous injury or death.
 Always keep the camera lens clean. The camera may not
work properly if the lens is
covered with foreign material.
