Driver And Passenger Front Air Bag Features
The Advanced Front Air Bag system has
multistage driver and front passenger air
bags. This system provides output appro
-
priate to the severity and type of collision as
determine
d by the Occupant Restraint
Controller (ORC), which may receive infor
-
mation from the front impact sensors (if
equipped)
or other system components.
The first stage inflator is triggered immedi-
ately during an impact that requires air bag
d
eploymen
t. A low energy output is used in
less severe collisions. A higher energy output
is used for more severe collisions.
This vehicle may be equipped with a driver
and/or fr
ont passenger seat belt buckle
switch that detects whether the driver or
front passenger seat belt is buckled. The seat
belt buckle switch may adjust the inflation
rate of the Advanced Front Air Bags.
This vehicle may be equipped with driver
and/or fr
ont passenger seat track position
sensors that may adjust the inflation rate of
the Advanced Front Air Bags based upon
seat position.
This vehicle is equipped with a right front
passenger
Occupant Classification System
(“OCS”) that is designed to provide
Passenger Advanced Front Air Bag output
appropriate to the occupant’s seated weight

WARNING!
Being too close to the steering wheel or
instrume10nt panel during front air bag
deployment could cause serious injury,
including death. Air bags need room to
inflate. Sit back, comfortably extending
your arms to reach the steering wheel or
instrument panel.
Never place a rear-facing child restraint
in front of an air bag. A deploying
passenger front air bag can cause death
or serious injury to a child 12 years or
younger, including a child in a
rear-facing child restraint.
Never install a rear-facing child restraint
in the front seat of a vehicle. Only use a
rear-facing child restraint in the rear
seat. If the vehicle does not have a rear
seat, do not transport a rear-facing child
restraint in that vehicle.
WARNING! (Continued)
WARNING!
No objects should be placed over or near
the air bag on the instrument panel or
steering wheel because any such objects
could cause harm if the vehicle is in a
collision severe enough to cause the air
bag to inflate.
