General Information: General Description

The Curtain Airbag (CAB) is located at driver and passenger side of headliner.

It protects the seat occupant's head and shoulder from impact, fragments of glass, or other loose debris caused by collision or vehicle overturning. The CAB consists of the airbag and inflator.

The airbag reduces the impact of a collision by filling up with gas.

The Inflator generates gas, which is used to deploy the airbag when collision occurs.

CAUTION: Never measure resistance of CAB directly, since the current of the measuring device may cause unexpected airbag deployment.
