*1 

(With Front Passenger Occupant Classification System)

  The front passenger front and side air bags and the seat belt pretensioner are designed to deploy when the front 

passenger occupant classification sensor detects a passenger sitting on the front passenger's seat.

*2  In a side collision, the seat belt pretensioners and the side/curtain air bags deploy (only on the side in which the 

collision occurs).

*3 

(With Front Passenger Occupant Classification System)

  In a roll-over accident, the seat belt pretensioners and the curtain air bags deploy.

NOTE

In a frontal offset collision, the equipped air bags and pretensioners may all deploy 

depending on the direction, angle, and rate of impact.
