(With Front Passenger Occupant

Curtain Air Bags
The curtain air bags are mounted in the
front and rear window pillars, and the roof
edge along both sides.
When the air bag crash sensors detect a
side impact of greater than moderate force,
the curtain air bag inflates quickly and
helps to reduce injury mainly to the driver
and front and rear outboard passengers'
heads caused by directly hitting interior
parts such as a door or window.
For more details about air bag
deployment, refer to "SRS Air Bag
Deployment Criteria" (page 2-68).
In a side impact:
Greater than moderate impact to one side
of the vehicle will cause the curtain air bag
on that side only to inflate.
Only one side curtain air bag will deploy
on the side of the vehicle that receives the
force of an impact.
(With Front Passenger Occupant
Classification System)
In a roll-over:
In response to a vehicle roll-over, both
curtain air bags inflate.
Both curtain air bags will deploy after the
roll-over accident is detected.
