SRS Air Bag Deployment Criteria

This chart indicates the applicable SRS equipment that will deploy depending on the type of collision.

(The illustrations are the representative cases of collisions.)

SRS equipment

Types of collision

A severe frontal/near frontal collision

A severe side collision*2

A rear collision

Seat belt pretensioner

X*1 (both sides)

X*1 (impact side only)

No air bag and seat belt pretensioner will be activated in a rear collision.

Driver air bag

X

Passenger air bag

X*1

Side air bag

X*1 (impact side only)

X : The SRS air bag equipment is designed to deploy in a collision.

  1. (Passenger Occupant Classification System)

    The passenger front and side air bags and the seat belt pretensioner are designed to deploy when the passenger occupant classification sensor detects a passenger sitting on the passenger's seat.

  2. In a side collision, the seat belt pretensioners and the side air bags deploy (only on the side in which the collision occurs).

 


In a frontal offset collision, the equipped air bags and pretensioners may all deploy depending on the direction, angle, and rate of impact.
