68 SEATS AND RESTRAINTS
Warning (Continued)
Occupants should not lean on or
sleep against the front center
armrest or console in vehicles with
a front center airbag.
Occupants should not lean on or
sleep against the door or side
windows in seating positions with
seat-mounted side impact airbags
and/or roof-rail airbags.
{Warning
Children who are up against,
or very close to, any airbag when it
inflates can be seriously injured or
killed. Always secure children
properly in the vehicle. To read
how, seeOlder Children 078 or
Infants and Young Children 079.
There is an airbag readiness light on
the center stack below the
infotainment screen, which shows the
airbag symbol.
The system checks the airbag
electrical system for malfunctions.
The light tells you if there is an
electrical problem. See Airbag
Readiness Light 0121.
Where Are the Airbags?
The driver frontal airbag is in the
center of the steering wheel.
The front outboard passenger frontal
airbag is in the passenger side
instrument panel.

The front center airbag is in the
inboard side of the driver seatback.
Driver Side Shown, Passenger SideSimilar
The driver and front outboard
passenger seat-mounted side impact
airbags are in the side of the
seatbacks closest to the door.
Driver Side Shown, Passenger Side Similar
The roof-rail airbags for the driver,
front outboard passenger, and second
and third row outboard passengers are
in the ceiling above the side windows.
{Warning
If something is between an
occupant and an airbag, the airbag
might not inflate properly or it
might force the object into that
person causing severe injury or
even death. The path of an inflating
airbag must be kept clear. Do not (Continued)
Warning (Continued)
put anything between an occupant
and an airbag, and do not attach or
put anything on the steering wheel
hub or on or near any other airbag
covering.
Do not use seat or console
accessories that block the inflation
path of a seat-mounted side impact
airbag or the front center airbag.
Never secure anything to the roof of
a vehicle with roof-rail airbags by
routing a rope or tie-down through
any door or window opening. If you
do, the path of an inflating roof-rail
airbag will be blocked.
When Should an Airbag
Inflate?
This vehicle is equipped with airbags.
SeeAirbag System 066. Airbags are
designed to inflate if the impact
exceeds the specific airbag system's
deployment threshold. Deployment
thresholds are used to predict how
severe a crash is likely to be in time

15567102) - 2022 - CRC - 11/17/21
SEATS AND RESTRAINTS 71
How Does an Airbag
Restrain?
In moderate to severe frontal or near
frontal collisions, even belted
occupants can contact the steering
wheel or the instrument panel. In
moderate to severe side collisions,
even belted occupants can contact the
inside of the vehicle.
Airbags supplement the protection
provided by seat belts by distributing
the force of the impact more evenly
over the occupant's body.
Rollover capable roof-rail airbags are
designed to help contain the head and
chest of occupants in the outboard
seating positions in the first, second,
and third rows. The rollover capable
roof-rail airbags are designed to help
reduce the risk of full or partial
ejection in rollover events, although
no system can prevent all such
ejections.
But airbags would not help in many
types of collisions, primarily because
the occupant's motion is not toward
those airbags. SeeWhen Should an
Airbag Inflate? 069. Airbags should never be regarded as
anything more than a supplement to
seat belts.What Will You See after an
Airbag Inflates?
After frontal and seat-mounted side
impact airbags inflate, they quickly
deflate, so quickly that some people
may not even realize the airbags
inflated. The front center airbag and
roof-rail airbags may still be at least
partially inflated for some time after
they inflate. Some components of the
airbag module may be hot for several
minutes. For location of the airbags,
see
Where Are the Airbags? 068.
The parts of the airbag that come into
contact with you may be warm, but
not too hot to touch. There may be
some smoke and dust coming from
the vents in the deflated airbags.
Airbag inflation does not prevent the
driver from seeing out of the
windshield or being able to steer the
vehicle, nor does it prevent people
from leaving the vehicle.
{Warning
When an airbag inflates, there may
be dust in the air. This dust could
cause breathing problems for
people with a history of asthma or
other breathing trouble. To avoid
this, everyone in the vehicle should
get out as soon as it is safe to do
so. If you have breathing problems
but cannot get out of the vehicle
after an airbag inflates, then get
fresh air by opening a window or a
door. If you experience breathing
problems following an airbag
deployment, you should seek
medical attention.
The vehicle has a feature that may
automatically unlock the doors, turn
on the interior lamps and hazard
warning flashers, and shut off the fuel
system after the airbags inflate. The
feature may also activate, without
airbag inflation, after an event that
exceeds a predetermined threshold.
After turning the ignition off and then
on again, the fuel system will return
to normal operation; the doors can be

102 STORAGE
Convenience Net
This vehicle may have a convenience
net in the rear of the vehicle. Attach it
to the cargo tie-downs for storing
small loads.
Do not use the net to store heavy
loads.
Roof Rack System
The vehicle may be equipped with
side-rails for a roof rack system. Cargo
must be secured with properly
installed cross rails and other
accessories designed to carry cargo.
These can be purchased from your
dealer.
{Warning
Before driving and occasionally
during a trip, check that cargo is
securely fastened, rests evenly
between the cross rails and does
not block the vehicle's lamps or
windows. Never load cargo directly
on the roof of the vehicle or allow
cargo to hang over the rear or sides
of the vehicle. Never load cargo
without first properly installing
cross rails and other accessories
designed to carry cargo. Personal
injury, death or damage to the
vehicle or other property may occur.If driving for a long distance, on rough
roads, or at high speeds, occasionally
stop the vehicle to make sure the
cargo remains in its place.
Cargo Weight Limits
Do not exceed the maximum cargo
weight for the roof rack system,
including the weight of the cross rails
and any other accessories used to
carry the cargo such as bike racks or
roof boxes. The maximum cargo
weight that can be loaded onto the
roof rack system is 100 kg (220 lb) or
the weight designated in the
instructions that came with the cross
rails or other roof rack accessories,
whichever is less.
{Warning
Never load the roof rack with more
weight than specified in this
section. Loading cargo on the roof
rack will make the vehicle's center
of gravity higher. To avoid losing
control of the vehicle, avoid
overloading, high speeds, sudden
