Active / Passive Restraints

The airbag system is designed to provide increased driver and passenger protection if the vehicle is involved in a front end collision. The system is most effective when used in conjuction with the seat belt system.

An occupant restraint system is standard factory-installed safety equipment on this model. Available occupant restraints for this model include both active and passive types. Active restraints are those which require the vehicle occupants to take some action to employ, such as fastening a seat belt; while passive restraints require no action by the vehicle occupants to be employed.
