The Safety Canopy娂 is mounted to roof side-rail sheet metal, behind the
headliner, above the first and second row seats. The Safety Canopy娂 is
designed to inflate between the side window area and occupants to
further enhance protection provided in side impact collisions and rollover
events.
The fact that the Safety Canopy娂 did not activate in a collision does not
mean that something is wrong with the system. Rather, it means the
forces were not of the type sufficient to cause activation. The Safety
Canopy娂 is designed to inflate in certain side impact collisions or
rollover events, not in rear impact, frontal or near-frontal collisions,
unless the collision causes sufficient lateral deceleration or rollover
likelihood.
Several Safety Canopy娂
system components get hot
after inflation. Do not touch them
after inflation.
If the Safety Canopy娂
system has deployed, the
Safety Canopy娂 will not
function again unless replaced.
The Safety Canopy娂 system
(including the A, B and C
pillar trim) must be inspected
and serviced by a authorized
dealer. If the Safety Canopy娂 is
not replaced, the unrepaired area
will increase the risk of injury in a
collision.
