● When a moderate to severe side impact is detected during vehicle travel and the triggering conditions are met, the side curtain airbag deploys to protect the head of the occupant on the side of collision. CAUTION ● If the seatbacks get wet from rain or splashes, the side airbag system may not work properly. ● Do not cover or replace seatback covers on you own. Unsuitable seatback covers may prevent airbag deployment. ● Generally, only the airbag on the impacted side deploys in the event of a side impact. REMINDER ● For optimum curtain airbag protection, the occupant must have their seat belt fastened and sit upright against the seatback.
● In the event of a side impact, the airbag on the impacted side deploys when the airbag system meets its deployment conditions. Airbag Triggering Conditions and Precautions ● For optimal side airbag protection, occupants must have their seat belts fastened and sit upright against the seatback. Airbag Triggering Conditions ● Airbag triggering conditions: In the event of a vehicle collision, whether an airbag will be triggered is decided by factors such as the amount of collision energy, accident type, collision angle, obstacles and vehicle speed. The airbag system may be triggered in special collisions.
Side Curtain Airbags ● The vehicle is equipped with left and right-side curtain airbags (mounted at the joint between the side walls of the body and the ceiling, with the A-pillar, B-pillar, and C-pillar shields marked with "AIRBAG", as shown in the illustration). ● The airbag system does not always work in any accident, and generally it will not be triggered in the event of a minor frontal collision, rear collision or rollover. In this case, the driver and passengers are protected by their properly fastened seat belts. 18
