When the SRS side ai rbag and SRS
curtain airbag deploy, a sudden, fairly loud
inflation noise will be heard and some
smoke will be relea sed. These occur-
rences are a normal result of the deploy-
ment. This smoke does not indicate a fire
in the vehicle.
CAUTION
Do not touch the SRS side airbag
system components around the
front seat seatback with bare hands
right after deployment. Doing so can
cause burns because the compo-
nents can be very hot as a result of
deployment.
After deployment, do not touch any
part of the SRS curtain airbag
system (from the front pillar to the
part of the roof side over the rear
seat). Doing so can cause burns
beca use the components can be
very hot as a result of deployment.
The SRS side airbag and SRS curtain
airbag are designed as follows:
. to deploy in the event of an accident
involvingamoderatetosevereside
impact collision
. to function on a one-time-only basis.
The SRS side airbag and SRS curtain
airbag are not designed to deploy in the
following cases:
. in most lesser side impact
. in most frontal or most rear impacts
(because the SRS side airbag and SRS
curtain airbag deployment would not
protect the occupant in those situations)
For XV CROSSTREK models, 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.
SRS side airbag and SRS curtain airbag
deployment depend on the level of force
experienced in the passenger compart-
ment during a side impact collision. 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.
! Example of the type of accident
in which the SRS side airbag will
most likely deploy.
1) A severe side impact near the front seat.
