turn signal HONDA ACCORD 2002 CL7 / 7.G Owners Manual

Some models are equipped with side
airbags f or the driver and a f ront
seat passenger. The airbags are
stored in the outer edges of the f ront
seat-backs, and both are marked
‘‘SIDE AIRBAG.’’If you ever have a moderate to
severe side impact, the sensors will
detect rapid deceleration and signal
the control unit to instantly inf late
either the driver’s or the passenger’s
side airbag.
Only one airbag will deploy during a
side impact. If the impact is on the
passenger’s side, the passenger’s
side airbag will deploy even if there
is no passenger.
To get the best protection f rom the
side airbags, front seat occupants
should wear their seat belts and sit
upright and well back in their seats.
When you turn the ignition ON (II),
this indicator will light brief ly then
go out. This tells you that the system
is working properly.Thepurposeof theSRS
indicator light is to alert
you to a potential problem with your
f ront airbags. On cars with side
airbags, this light will also alert you
to a potential problem with your
automatic seat belt tensioners (page ); or your side airbags or
passenger’s side airbag automatic
