Airbags
Your vehicle is equipped with three types of airbags: front airbags, side airbags, and side curtain airbags.
Front Airbags (SRS)
The front SRS airbags inate in a moderate-to-severe frontal collision to help
protect the head and chest of the driver and/or front passenger. They are housed
in the center of the steering wheel for the driver, and in the dashboard for the front
passenger. Both airbags are marked SRS AIRBAG.
SRS (Supplemental Restraint System) indicates that the airbags are designed to
supplement seat belts, not replace them. Seat belts are the occupant’s primary restraint system.
Advanced Airbags
Your front airbags have advanced features to help reduce the likelihood of airbag- related injuries to smaller occupants.
The driver’s advanced front airbag system includes
a seat position sensor. If the seat is too far forward, the airbag inates with less force, regardless of the severity of the impact.
If there is a problem with the driver’s seat position
sensor, the SRS indicator will come on and the airbag will inate with full (normal) force, regardless
of the driver’s seating position.
The passenger’s advanced front airbag system has weight sensors. Although Honda recommends against carrying an infant or small child in front, if the sensors detect the weight of a child (up to 65 lbs or 29 kg), the system will automatically turn off the
passenger’s front airbag. For both advanced front airbags to work properly: •  Do not spill any liquid on or under the seats.
•  Do not put any object under the passenger’s seat.
•  Make sure any objects are positioned properly on the oor. Improperly positioned
objects can interfere with the advanced airbag sensors.
•  All occupants should sit upright and wear their seat belts properly.
•  Do not place any cover over any part of the passenger side dashboard.
Side Airbags
The side airbags help protect the torso and pelvis of the driver or a front passenger during a moderate-to-severe side impact. They are housed in the outside edge of the
driver’s and front passenger’s seat-backs. Both are marked SIDE AIRBAG.
Side Curtain Airbags
Side curtain airbags help protect the heads of the driver and passengers in outer seating positions during a moderate-to-severe side impact. The side curtain airbags
equipped in this vehicle are also designed to help reduce the likelihood of partial and complete ejection of vehicle occupants through side windows in crashes, particularly rollover crashes. The side curtain airbags are located in the ceiling above the side windows on both sides of the vehicle.
Both are marked SIDE CURTAIN AIRBAG. The side curtain airbags are designed to deploy
in a rollover, moderate-to-severe side impact, or a moderate-to-severe angled frontal collision. If the SRS control unit senses that your vehicle is
about to roll over, it immediately deploys both side curtain airbags and activates both front seat belt
tensioners. If the impact is on the passenger’s side,
the passenger’s side curtain airbag deploys even if there is no passenger in the passenger seat.
To get the best protection from the side curtain airbags, occupants should wear their seat belts properly and sit upright and well back in their seats.
Do not attach any objects to the side windows or roof pillars, as they can interfere with the proper operation of the side curtain airbags.
When side curtain airbags deploy in a frontal collision
One or both side curtain airbags may inate in a severe frontal collision. In this case, the side curtain airbags will deploy slightly after the front airbags.

Important Facts About Your Airbags
Always wear your seat belt properly, and sit upright and as far back from the steering
wheel as possible while allowing full control of the vehicle. A front passenger should move their seat as far back from the dashboard as possible. Do not place hard or sharp objects between yourself and a front airbag. Carrying
hard or sharp objects on your lap, or driving with a pipe or other sharp object in your mouth, can result in injuries if your front airbag inates. Do not attach or place objects on the front airbag covers. Objects on the covers
marked SRS AIRBAG could interfere with the proper operation of the airbags or be
propelled inside the vehicle and hurt someone if the airbags inate.Do not attach accessories on or near the side airbags. They can interfere with the
proper operation of the airbags, or hurt someone if an airbag inates.Do not attach any objects to the side windows or roof pillars. They can interfere with
the proper operation of the side curtain airbags.Do not cover or replace the front seat-back covers. This can prevent your side
airbags from properly deploying during a side impact
Passenger Airbag Off indicator
The indicator comes on to alert you that the front
passenger’s front airbag has been turned off. This
occurs when the front passenger’s seat weight sensors detect 65 lbs (29 kg) or less, the weight of an infant or small child, on the seat. Infants and small children should always ride properly restrained in a back seat.
The indicator also will come on when the front passenger‘s seat is empty; the
passenger’s front airbag will not deploy in a crash.
To ensure the passenger is detected properly, check that:•  There is no child seat or other object pressing against the rear of the seat-back.
•  There is no rear passenger pushing or pulling on the back of the front passenger’s
seat.
•  The front seat or seat-back is not forced back against an object on the seat or
oor behind it.
•  There is no object placed under or beside the front passenger’s seat.
•  The occupant is sitting in an upright position and the seat back is not excessively
reclined.
•  The occupant is not leaning against the door or center console.
•  The occupant’s feet are placed on the oor in front of them.
•  There are no objects hanging from the front passenger’s seat.
•  Only small, lightweight objects are in the seat-back pocket.
The passenger airbag off indicator may come on and go off periodically if the total weight on the seat is near the airbag cutoff threshold. Have your vehicle checked by a dealer as soon as possible if:•  None of the above conditions exist, and the indicator comes on with an adult
riding there.
•  The seat is empty and the indicator is off.
Do not allow an adult passenger to ride in the front seat when the indicator is on.
Airbag System Indicators
If a problem occurs in the airbag system, the SRS indicator comes on and a message appears on the Driver Information Interface*.
SRS (Supplemental Restraint System) indicator
If the indicator comes on at any other time besides vehicle start-up, or does not come on at all, have the system checked by a dealer as soon as possible. If
you don’t, your airbags and seat belt tensioners may not work properly when they are needed. An open glove box can cause serious injury to your passenger in a crash, even if the passenger is wearing the seat belt. Always keep the glove box closed while driving.
WARNING
*if equipped
*
Ignoring the SRS indicator can result in serious injury or death if the airbag
systems or tensioners do not work properly. Have your vehicle checked by a dealer as soon as possible if the SRS indicator alerts you to a possible problem.

1 Two SRS (Supplemental Restraint System) front airbags. The driver’s airbag
is stored in the center of the steering wheel; the front passenger’s airbag is stored in the dashboard. Both are marked SRS AIRBAG.
2 Two side airbags, one for the driver and one for the front passenger. The
airbags are stored in the outer edges of the seat-backs. Both are marked SIDE
AIRBAG .
3 Two side curtain airbags, one for each side of the vehicle. The airbags are
stored in the ceiling, above the side windows. The front and rear pillars are marked SIDE CURTAIN AIRBAG .
4 An electronic control unit that, when the vehicle is on, continually monitors
information about the various impact sensors, seat and buckle sensors,
rollover sensor, airbag activators, seat belt tensioners, and other vehicle information. During a collision, the unit records such information.
5 Automatic front seat belt tensioners. In addition, the driver’s and front passenger’s seat belt buckles incorporate sensors that detect whether or not the belts are fastened.
6 A driver’s seat position sensor. If the seat is too far forward, the airbag will
inate with less force.
7 Weight sensors in the front passenger’s seat. The front passenger’s airbag will be turned off if the weight on the seat is about 65 lbs (29 kg) or less (the
weight of an infant or small child) or if the seat is empty.
8 Impact sensors that can detect a moderate-to-severe front or side impact.
9 An indicator on the dashboard that alerts you that the front passenger’s front airbag has been turned off.
Airbag System Components
Airbag Care
You do not need to, and should not, perform any maintenance on or replace any
airbag system components yourself. However, you should have your vehicle inspected by a dealer in the following situations:
When the airbags have deployed
If an airbag has inated, the control unit and other related parts must be replaced.
Similarly, once an automatic seat belt tensioner has been activated, it must be replaced.
You should always use new, genuine Honda parts to replace parts after an airbag
deployment. Used, salvaged, aftermarket, or grey-market parts may not work correctly in a crash.
When the vehicle has been in a moderate-to-severe collision
Even if the airbags did not inate, have your dealer inspect the following: the
driver’s seat position sensor, weight sensors in the passenger’s seat, front seat belt tensioners, and each seat belt that was worn during the crash.
Do not remove or modify a front seat without first consulting a dealer
This would likely disable or affect the proper operation of the driver’s seat position
sensor or the weight sensors in the passenger’s seat. If it is necessary to remove
or modify a front seat to accommodate a person with disabilities, contact a Honda
dealer. For U.S. vehicles, call Honda Automobile Customer Service at (800) 999-1009.
For Canadian vehicles, call Honda Canada Customer Relations at (888) 946-6329.
10 An indicator on the instrument panel that alerts you to a possible problem with the
