o Front airbags are not intended to
deploy in side-impact, rear-impact
or rollover crashes. In addition,
airbags will not normally deploy
in frontal crashes below the de-
ployment threshold speed.
o For maximum safety protection in
all types of crashes, all occupants
including the driver should always
wear their seat belts whether or
not an airbag is also provided at
their seating position to minimize
the risk of severe injury or death in
the event of a crash. Do not sit or
lean unnecessarily close to the
airbag whilst the vehicle is in
motion.

Rollover
o The SRS airbag system must de-
ploy very rapidly to provide pro-
tection in a crash. If an occupant is
out of position because of not
wearing a seat belt, the airbag may
forcefully contact the occupant
causing serious or fatal injuries.

SRS Components and Functions
The SRS consists of the following com-
ponents:
- Driver's Airbag Module
- Passenger's Airbag Module
- SRS Service Reminder Indicator (SRI)
- SRS Control Module (SRSCM)
The SRSCM continually monitors all
elements whilst the ignition is "ON" to
determine if a frontal or near-frontal
impact is severe enough to require
airbag deployment.
