Safe Driving

The front, front side, and side curtain 
airbags are deployed according to the 
direction and severity of impact. Both side 
curtain airbags are deployed in a rollover. 
The airbag system includes:

a

Two 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

.

b

Two side airbags, one for the driver and 
one for a front passenger. The airbags are 
stored in the outer edges of the seat-
backs. Both are marked 

SIDE AIRBAG

.

c

Two 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

d

An electronic control unit that, when the 
ignition switch 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.

e

Automatic front seat belt tensioners. In 
addition, the driver’s and front 
passenger’s seat belt buckles incorporate 
sensors that detect whether or not the 
belts are fastened.

f

Driver’s seat position sensor. This sensor 
detects the driver’s seat slide position to 
help determine the optimal deployment 
of the driver’s airbag.

g

Weight sensors in the front passenger’s 
seat. The sensors are used for occupant 
classification to activate or deactivate the 
front passenger’s airbag.

h

Impact sensors that can detect a 
moderate-to-severe front or side impact.

i

An indicator on the dashboard that alerts 
you that the front passenger’s front 
airbag has been turned off.

j

An indicator on the instrument panel that 
alerts you to a possible problem with your 
airbag system or seat belt tensioners.

k

A rollover sensor that can detect if your 
vehicle is about to roll over and signal the 
control unit to deploy both side curtain 
airbags.

*1: Models with the smart entry system have an 

ENGINE START/STOP

 button instead of an 

ignition switch.
