SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

1. GENERAL

(a) Airbag for Frontal Collision

(1) The dual-stage SRS driver and front passenger airbags deploy simultaneously in the event of a frontal impact collision as supplements to the seat belts. The dual-stage SRS airbag system controls the airbag inflation output by judging the extent of the impact, the seat position and whether the seat belt is fastened.





(b) Airbag for Side/Rear Side Collision

(1) SRS side and curtain shield airbags deploy simultaneously in the event of a side collision. Only the curtain shield airbag deploys in the event of a rear side collision.
