Advanced Front Airbag Features
The Advanced Front Airbag system has multistage driver
and front passenger airbags. This system provides output
appropriate to the severity and type of collision as
determined by the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC),
which may receive information from the front impact
sensors.

The first stage inflator is triggered immediately during an
impact that requires airbag deployment. This low output
is used in less severe collisions. A higher energy output is
used for more severe collisions.

NOTE:

The passenger Advanced Front Airbag may not

deploy, even when the driver Advanced Front Airbag
has, if the Occupant Classification System (refer to

ЉOc-

cupant Classification System”) has determined the pas-
senger seat is empty or is occupied by someone that is
classified in the

ЉchildЉ size category. This could be a

child, teenager, or even an adult.
