1011-7. Safety information1Before driving■SRS airbag deployment conditions (front airbags)●The SRS front airbags will deploy in the event of an impact that exceeds the setthreshold level (the level of force corresponding to an approximately 12 - 18 mph[20 - 30 km/h] frontal collision with a fi xed wall that does not move or deform).However, this threshold velocity will be considerably higher if the vehicle strikesan object, such as a parked vehicle or sign pole, which can move or deform onimpact, or if the vehicle is involved in an underride collision (e.g. a collision inwhich the front of the vehicle "underrides", or goes under, the bed of a truck, etc.).●It is possible that in some collisions where the forward deceleration of the vehi-cle is very close to the designed thresh old level, the SRS front airbags and theseat belt pretensioners may not activate together. ●The SRS front passenger airbag will not activate if there is no passenger sittingin the front passenger seat. However, the front passenger airbag may deploy ifluggage is put in the seat, or the seat belt is fastened, even if the seat is unoccu-pied. (→P. 109)■SRS airbag deployment conditions (side and curtain shield airbags)●The SRS side airbags and SRS curtain shield airbags will deploy in the event ofan impact that exceeds the set threshold level (the level of force correspondingto the impact force produced by an approximately 3300 lb. [1500 kg] vehiclecolliding with the vehicle cabin from a direction perpendicular to the vehicle ori-entation at an approximate speed of 12 - 18 mph [20 - 30 km/h]).●The SRS side airbag on the passenger seat will not activate if there is no passen-ger sitting in the front passenger seat. Ho wever, the side airbag on the passen-ger seat may deploy if luggage is put in th e seat, even if the seat is unoccupied.(→P. 109)■Conditions under which the SRS airbags may deploy (inflate), other than a colli-sionThe SRS front airbags may also deploy if a serious impact occurs to the underside ofyour vehicle. Some examples are shown in the illustration.●Hitting a curb, edge of pavement or hardsurface●Falling into or jumping over a deep hole●Landing hard or vehicle falling
