(With Front Passenger Occupant Classification System)

In addition, the front passenger side bag is designed to only deploy when the front passenger
occupant classification sensor detects a passenger sitting on the front passenger's seat. For
details, refer to the front passenger occupant classification system (page 2-59).
 

Curtain Air Bags

The curtain air bags are mounted in the front and rear window pillars, and the roof edge
along both sides.
When the air bag crash sensors detect a side impact of greater than moderate force, the
curtain air bag inflates quickly and helps to reduce injury mainly to the rear outboard
passenger's head caused by directly hitting interior parts such as a door or window.
For more details about air bag deployment, refer to "SRS Air Bag Deployment Criteria"
(page 2-56).

In a side impact:

Greater than moderate impact to one side of the vehicle will cause the curtain air bag on that
side only to inflate.
 

Only one side curtain air bag will deploy on the 
side of the vehicle that receives the force of an 
impact.
