The airbag control unit monitors the readiness of the electronic
parts of the system whenever the ignition switch is in the “ON”
or “START” position. These include all of the items listed
above and all related wiring.
The airbags will operate only when the ignition switch is in the
“ON” or “START” position.
When the impact sensors detect a sufficient front or side impact
to deploy the airbag(s), the appropriate airbag(s) will be
deployed.
When the airbag control unit detects rollover of the vehicle,
curtain airbags will be deployed.
When airbags deploy, some smoke is released accompanied by
a loud noise. The smoke is not harmful, but do not intentionally
inhale the smoke as it may cause temporary irritation to people
with respiratory problems.
An inflated airbag will deflate quickly, so you may not even
notice that the airbag was inflated.
Airbag inflation does not prevent the driver from seeing or
being able to steer the vehicle, and does not prevent people
from leaving the vehicle.

● Airbags inflate very quickly and with great force. In
certain situations, contact with an inflating airbag
may cause small cuts, abrasions, and bruises.
