When the impact sensor
s detect a sufficient
front or side impact to deploy the airbag(s),the appropriate airbag
(s) will be deployed.
When the airbag control unit detects rollover of the vehicle, curtain airbags will be deployed. When airbags deploy, some smoke is released accompanied by a loud noise. The smoke is not harmful, but do not
intentionally inhale
the smoke as it may ca
use temporary irrita-
tion to people with respiratory problems. An inflated airbag will deflate quickly, so you may not even notice that the airbag wasinflated. Airbag inflation does not prevent the driver from seeing or being able
to steer the vehicle,
and does not prevent people from leaving the vehicle.

The driver’s seat posit
ion sensor is attached
to the seat rail and pr
ovides the airbag control
unit with information on the seat’s fore-aft position. The airbag control unit controlsdeployment of the driver’s front airbag in accordance with the information it receives from this sensor.If there is a problem involving the driver’s seat position sensor, the SRS warning light in the instrument panel will come on. Refer to“SRS warning light/display” on page 4-41.

The passenger’s seat oc
cupant classification
sensor system is attach
ed to the front passen-
ger seat cushion and provides the airbag con- trol unit with information regarding the occupant on the front passenger seat. The air-bag control unit controls deployment of the passenger’s front airbag
in accordance with
the information it receives from this system. The passenger’s front airbag will not deploy in an impact when the system senses no occu-pant on the front passenge
r’s seat or a child in
a child restraint system. In this case, the pas- senger airbag off indi
cator will come on.
Refer to “Passenger’s ai
rbag off indicator” on
page 4-40. If there is a problem involving the passen-ger’s seat occupant cl
assification sensor sys-
tem, the SRS warning light in the instrument panel will come on. Re
fer to “SRS warning
light/display” on page 4-41.
CAUTION Airbags inflate very quickly and with great force. In certain situations, contact with aninflating airbag may cause small cuts, abra- sions, and bruises.

Tips for starting

WA R N I N G Never run the engine in
a closed or poorly
ventilated area any longer than is neededto move your vehicle out of the area. Car- bon monoxide gas, which is odorless and extremely poisonous, could build up andcause serious injury or death.CAUTION Do not push-start the vehicle.Do not run the engine at high rpms or drive at high speeds until the engine has had a chance to warm up.
Starting the engine

NOTE
 After the engine has not
started for a while,
the brake pedal effort needed to start the engine may become grea
ter. If this occurs,
depress the brake pedal more firmly than usual.NOTE
 The engine can only be started when the selector lever is in the “P” (PARK) or “N” (NEUTRAL) position. For safety reasons,
the engine should be
started when the selector lever is in the “P” (PARK) position in which the driving wheels lock.
