Deceleration Paddle Selector (P380)
When you release the accelerator pedal, you ca n control the rate of deceleration without 
removing your hands from the steering wheel. Usin g the deceleration paddle selector situated 
on the steering wheel, you can sequentially  shift through six stages of deceleration.
●Using the deceleration paddle selector temporarily
If you pull back the paddle selector while the drive mode is not in  SPORT mode, the rate of 
deceleration will change temporarily, and the stage will appear on the gauge.
●Locking the deceleration paddle selector
While M  is displayed on the gauge, the deceleration  stage can be locked at its current setting.
M  will appear on the gauge if you pull and hold back the 
(- selector, or if you change the drive 
mode to  SPORT mode.
To make M  disappear, change out of  SPORT mode; or if M  is displayed in a mode other than 
SPORT  mode, pull and hold back the

Safe Driving
The front, driver’s knee, front passenger’s 
knee, side, and side curtain airbags are 
deployed according to the direction and 
severity of impact. Both side curtain airbags 
are deployed in a ro llover. 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 knee airbags. Th e driver’s knee 
airbag is stored under the steering 
column; the front passenger’s knee 
airbag is stored under the glove box. 
Both are marked  SRS AIRBAG.
cFour side airbags. One for the driver, one 
for the front passenger, and two for the 
rear outboard seating positions. The front 
airbags are stored in the outer edges of 
the seat-backs and the rear airbags are 
stored next to the outer rear seating 
positions. All are marked  SIDE AIRBAG.
dTwo side curtain airbags, 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 .
eAn electronic control unit that, when the 
power mode is in 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.
fSeat belt tensioners for the front seats 
and outer rear seats. In addition, the 
driver’s and front passenger’s seat belt 
buckles incorporate sensors that detect 
whether or not the belts are fastened.
gDriver’s seat position sensor. This sensor 
detects the driver’s seat slide position to 
help determine the optimal deployment 
of the driver’s airbag.
hWeight sensors in the front passenger’s 
seat. The sensors are used for occupant 
classification to activa te or deactivate the 
front passenger’s airbag.
iImpact sensors that can detect a 
moderate-to-severe front or side impact.
jAn indicator on the roof console that 
alerts you that the front passenger’s front 
airbag has been turned off.
kAn indicator on the instrument panel that 
alerts you to a possib le problem with your 
airbag system or seat belt tensioners.
lA rollover sensor that can detect if your 
vehicle is about to roll over and signal the 
control unit to deploy  both side curtain 
airbags.
mPressure sensors that can detect a 
moderate-to-severe side impact.

uuAirbags uAirbag System Components
Safe DrivingAirbags can pose serious hazards. To do  their job, airbags must inflate with 
tremendous force. So, while airbags help sa ve lives, they can cause burns, bruises, 
and other minor injuries, sometimes even fatal ones if occupants are not wearing 
their seat belts properl y 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 ca n prevent all injuries or deaths that 
can occur in a severe crash, even when s eat 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 objects on  the front, driver’s knee, and front 
passenger’s knee 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 hands and arms out of the 
deployment path of the fro nt airbag by holding each 
side of the steering wheel.  Do not cross an arm over 
the airbag cover.

uuAirbags uTypes of Airbags
Safe Driving
Types of Airbags
Your vehicle is equipped with four types of airbags:
• Front airbags:  Airbags in front of the driver’s and front passenger’s seats.
• Knee airbags:  Airbags under the steering column and under the glove box.
• Side airbags:  Airbags in the driver’s and front  passenger’s outer seat-backs and 
next to the outer rear seating positions.
• Side curtain airbags:  Airbags above the side windows.
Each is discussed in the following pages.
Front Airbags (SRS)
The front SRS airbags inflate in a moderate-to -severe frontal collision to help protect 
the head and chest of the driver and/or front passenger.
SRS  (Supplemental Restraint System) indicates that the airbags are designed to 
supplement seat belts, not replace them.  Seat belts are the occupant’s primary 
restraint system.
The front airbags are housed  in the center of the steering wheel for the driver, and 
in the dashboard for the front pass enger. Both airbags are marked SRS AIRBAG.
■Housing Locations
1Types of Airbags
The airbags can inflate whenever the power mode is 
in ON.
After an airbag inflates in a crash, you may see a 
small amount of smoke. This is from the combustion 
process of the infl ator material and  is not harmful. 
People with respiratory pr oblems may experience 
some temporary discomfort. If  this occurs, get out of 
the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.
1 Front Airbags (SRS)
During a frontal crash severe  enough to cause one or 
both front airbags to deploy, the airbags can inflate 
at different rates, dependi ng on the severity of the 
crash, whether or not the se at belts are latched, and/
or other factors. Frontal airbags are designed to 
supplement the seat belts to help reduce the 
likelihood of head and chest injuries in frontal 
crashes.
