Additional Information About Your Side Airbags

On all V6 models and the 4-cylinder EX

model with leather interior

Your car is equipped with side

airbags for the driver and a front

seat passenger. The airbags are

stored in the outer edges of the front

seat-backs, and both are marked

"SIDE AIRBAG."

How Your Side Airbags Work

If you ever have a moderate to

severe side impact, the sensors will

detect rapid deceleration and signal

the control unit to instantly inflate

either the driver's or the passenger's

side airbag.

Only one airbag will deploy during a

side impact. If the impact is on the

passenger's side, the passenger's

side airbag will deploy even if there

is no passenger.

To get the best protection from the

side airbags, front seat occupants

should wear their seat belts and sit

upright and well back in their seats.
