After the deployment, the SRS side airbag immediately starts to deflate. The
time required from detection of an impact to deflation of an SRS side airbag
after deployment is shorter than the blink of an eye.
The SRS curtain airbag remains inflated for a while following deployment
then slowly deflates.
The SRS side airbag and SRS curtain airbag deploy even when no one
occupies the seat on the side on which an impact is applied.
When the SRS side airbag and SRS curtain airbag deploy, a sudden, fairly
loud inflation noise will be heard and some smoke will be released. These
occurrences are a normal result of the deployment. This smoke does not
indicate a fire in the vehicle.
The SRS side airbag and SRS curtain airbag are designed to deploy in the
event of an accident involving a moderate to severe side impact collision.
They are not designed to deploy in most lesser side impact. Also, they are
not designed to deploy in most frontal or most rear impacts because SRS
side airbag and SRS curtain airbag deployment would not help the occupant
in those situations.
The SRS curtain airbags are also designed to deploy when the vehicle is in
an extremely inclined state such as during a rollover. They are not designed
to deploy in most lesser inclined state.
Each SRS side airbag and SRS curtain airbag are designed to function on a
one-time-only basis.
SRS side airbag and SRS curtain airbag deployment depend on the level of
force experienced in the passenger compartment during a side impact colli-
sion. That level differs from one type of collision to another, and it may have
no bearing on the visible damage done to the vehicle itself.
