Description & Operation: Notes
WARNING:
To avoid injury from accidental air bag deployment, read and carefully follow all WARNINGS and SERVICE PRECAUTIONS.
The Supplemental Inflatable Restraint (SIR) system is designed to deploy in a frontal collision. The air bag will deploy only upon frontal or near frontal impact of no more than 30 degrees off the centerline of the vehicle. The system is not designed to deploy in rear impacts, side impacts or rollovers. A frontal impact of sufficient severity (comparable to a collision into a solid wall at approximately 14 MPH or more) will cause the sensors in the vehicle to detect this sudden deceleration. These sensors, in turn, trigger the inflator module.
