The SABs may help to reduce the risk of
occupant injury during certain side
impacts and/or vehicle rollover events, in
addition to the injury reduction potential
provided by the seat belts and body
structure.
When the SAB deploys, it opens the seam
on the outboard side of the seatback’s
trim cover. The inflating SAB deploys
through the seat seam into the space
between the occupant and the door.The
SAB moves at a very high speed and with
such a high force that it could injure
occupants if they are not seated
properly, or if items are positioned in the
area where the SAB inflates. Children are
at an even greater risk of injury from a
deploying air bag.
Warning!
Do not use accessory seat covers or place
objects between you and the Side Air Bags;
the performance could be adversely
affected and/or objects could be pushed into
you, causing serious injury.
2. Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflatable
Curtains (SABICs): Located above the
side windows. The trim covering the
SABICs is labeled “SRS AIRBAG” or
“AIRBAG.”
SABICs may help reduce the risk of head
or other injuries to front and rear seat
outboard occupants in certain side
impacts and/or vehicle rollover events, in
addition to the injury reduction potential
provided by the seat belts and body
structure.
The SABICs deploy downward, covering
the side windows. An inflating SABIC
pushes the outside edge of the trim out
of the way and covers the window. The
SABICs inflate with enough force to
injure occupants if they are not belted
and seated properly, or if items are
positioned in the area where the SABICs
inflate. Children are at an even greater
risk of injury from a deploying air bag.
Warning!
Do not stack luggage or other cargo up
high enough to block the deployment of the
SABICs. The trim covering above the side
windows where the SABIC and its
deployment path are located should remain
free from any obstructions.
In order for the SABICs to work as
intended, do not install any accessory items
in your vehicle which could alter the roof. Do
not add an aftermarket sunroof to your
vehicle. Do not add roof racks that require
permanent attachments (bolts or screws) for
installation on the vehicle roof. Do not drill
into the roof of the vehicle for any reason.
The SABICs and SABs (Side Air Bags) are
designed to activate in certain side
impacts and certain rollover events. The
Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC)
determines whether the deployment of
the Side Air Bags in a particular side
impact or rollover event is appropriate,
based on the severity and type of
collision. Vehicle damage by itself is not a
good indicator of whether or not Side Air
Bags should have deployed.
Side Air Bags are a supplement to the
seat belt restraint system. Side Air Bags
deploy in less time than it takes to blink
your eyes.
