SEATS AND RESTRAINTS 65
a rollover or in a severe frontal
impact. Roof-rail airbags are not
designed to inflate in rear impacts.
Both roof-rail airbags will inflate when
either side of the vehicle is struck,
if the sensing system predicts that the
vehicle is about to roll over on its
side, or in a severe frontal impact.
In any particular crash, no one can
say whether an airbag should have
inflated simply because of the vehicle
damage or repair costs.
What Makes an Airbag
Inflate?
In a deployment event, the sensing
system sends an electrical signal
triggering a release of gas from the
inflator. Gas from the inflator fills the
airbag causing the bag to break out of
the cover. The inflator, the airbag, and
related hardware are all part of the
airbag module.
For airbag locations, seeWhere Are the
Airbags? 062.
How Does an Airbag
Restrain?
In moderate to severe frontal or near
frontal collisions, even belted
occupants can contact the steering
wheel or the instrument panel. In
moderate to severe side collisions,
even belted occupants can contact the
inside of the vehicle.
Airbags supplement the protection
provided by seat belts by distributing
the force of the impact more evenly
over the occupant's body.
Rollover capable roof-rail airbags are
designed to help contain the head and
chest of occupants in the outboard
seating positions in the first, second,
and third rows. The rollover capable
roof-rail airbags are designed to help
reduce the risk of full or partial
ejection in rollover events, although
no system can prevent all such
ejections.
But airbags would not help in many
types of collisions, primarily because
the occupant's motion is not toward
those airbags. See When Should an
Airbag Inflate? 064. Airbags should never be regarded as
anything more than a supplement to
seat belts.What Will You See after an
Airbag Inflates?
After frontal, knee, and seat-mounted
side impact airbags inflate, they
quickly deflate, so quickly that some
people may not even realize the
airbags inflated. Roof-rail airbags may
still be at least partially inflated for
some time after they inflate. Some
components of the airbag module may
be hot for several minutes. For
location of the airbags, see
Where Are
the Airbags? 062.
The parts of the airbag that come into
contact with you may be warm, but
not too hot to touch. There may be
some smoke and dust coming from
the vents in the deflated airbags.
Airbag inflation does not prevent the
driver from seeing out of the
windshield or being able to steer the
vehicle, nor does it prevent people
from leaving the vehicle.

Map Information
Road network attributes are contained
in the map database for map
information. Attributes include
information such as street names,
street addresses, and turn restrictions.
A detailed area includes all major
highways, service roads, and
residential roads. The detailed areas
include Places of Interest (POIs) such
as restaurants, airports, banks,
hospitals, police stations, gas stations,
tourist attractions, and historical
monuments.
If the vehicle does not have an
applicable service plan, the map
database may not include data for
newly constructed areas or map
database corrections that are
completed after production. The
navigation system provides full route
guidance in the detailed map areas.
Zoom Control
The zoom control display is shown on
the map view. A few ways to zoom in
or out are:
.Touch + or–to zoom in or out on
the map.
.Double tap with one finger to zoom
in or single tap with two fingers to
zoom out on the map.
.Use the index finger and thumb to
zoom out by pinching and then
zoom in by spreading those two
fingers on the map.
Map Gestures and Map Scale
Use the following gestures on the
infotainment display to adjust the
map scale and display options.
.Pinch to zoom in or out.
.Pan the map.
.Use two fingers to tilt down and
change from 2D to 3D. Tilt up to
change back to 2D.
.Rotate the map.
See Using the System 0149.
Mute
When in active guidance, the audio
prompts while using navigation can be
muted. Touch the speaker icon on the
right side of the upper bar. A slash
will appear on the speaker to indicate
voice guidance is muted.
Active Guidance View
When a destination is chosen and a
navigation session is active, the
navigation system enters into an
Active Guidance View (AGV).
Map Orientation
Touch
Aon the map to access map
orientation settings. Map orientation
is 3D Heading Up by default.
Available settings are:
.3D Heading Up (Default): 3D map
with the vehicle pointing up. In this
mode, the current location icon will
always head up and the map will
rotate around it.
.2D Heading Up: 2D map with the
vehicle pointing up. In this mode,
the current location icon will always
head up and the map will rotate
around it.
.2D North Up: 2D map with North
pointing up. In this mode, the
current location icon will shift as
the vehicle turns left and right.
Touch the icon to change the map
type. The icon and label will also
update accordingly.
