SRS Airbag( Supplemental Restraint System Airbag) 73
WARNING
. Do not sit or lean close to the front doors. The SRS front seat side airbags are stored in the front seat seatbacks next to the front doors. They provide protection by deploying rapidly in the event of a side impact or an offset frontal collision. However, the force of SRS front seat side airbag deployment can injure an occupant if they are too close to an SRS airbag.
. Do not sit or lean close to the rear doors. The SRS rear seat side airbags are stored in the rear pillars next to the rear doors.
They provide protection by deploying rapidly in the event of a side impact collision. However, the force of SRS rear seat side airbag deployment can injure an occupant if they are too close to an SRS airbag.
. Since this vehicle is equipped with SRS curtain airbags, do not sit or lean close to the front or rear door on either side. Do not put body parts out of the window. The SRS curtain airbags on both sides of the cabin are stored in the roof side( between the front pillar and a point behind the rear quarter glass), and they provide protection by deploying rapidly in the event of a side impact, rollover or an offset frontal collision. However, the force of its deployment can injure an occupant if they are too close to an SRS airbag.
. Do not sit or lean close to the SRS airbag. Because the SRS airbag deploys with considerable speed and force to protect in high speed collisions, the force of an airbag can injure an occupant whose body is too close to SRS airbag.
It is also important to wear a
seatbelt to help avoid injuries that can result when the SRS airbag contacts an occupant who is not seated in the proper upright position.
Even when properly positioned, there remains a possibility that an occupant may suffer minor injuries, such as abrasions and bruises to the face or arms, because of the SRS airbag deployment force.
WARNING
. Keep arms away from either front and rear door or its internal trim. Keep arms and body away from
