Airbags
Your vehicle is equipped with three types of airbags: front airbags, side\
airbags, and side
curtain airbags.
n
Front Airbags (SRS)
The front SRS airbags infl ate in a moderate-to-severe frontal collisi\
on 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 des\
igned to
supplement seat belts, not replace them. Seat belts are the occupant’\
s primary
restraint system.
n
Advanced Airbags
Your front airbags have advanced features to help reduce the likelihood o\
f 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 infl ates 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 infl ate with full (normal) force, regardless of the
driver’s seating position.
Driver’s
seat
position
sensor
Passenger’s
seat
weight
sensors
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.
Driver’s
seat
position
sensor
Passenger’s
seat
weight
sensors
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 floor. 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. n
Side Airbags
The side airbags help protect the torso and pelvis of the driver or a fr\
ont 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.
n
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 curt\
ain 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 crash\
es,
particularly rollover crashes.
The side curtain airbags are located in the ceiling
above the side windows on both sides of the vehicle.
The side curtain airbags are designed to deploy in
a rollover or moderate-to-severe side impact. 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.
The airbag on the passenger’s side will deploy, even if
there are no passengers on that side of the vehicle.
Side Curtain Airbag Storage
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.
Deployed Side Curtain Airbag
When side curtain airbags deploy in a frontal collision
One or both side curtain airbags may infl ate in a moderate-to-severe \
angled frontal
collision. In this case, the side curtain airbags will deploy slightly a\
fter the
front airbags.

S
AFETY
n 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 possi\
ble.
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\
o
bject in your
mouth, can result in injuries if your front airbag inflates.
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 airba\
gs or be
propelled inside the vehicle and hurt someone if the airbags inflate.
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 infl ate\
s.
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.
WARNING
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.
n Airbag System Indicators
If a problem occurs in the airbag system, the SRS indicator comes on and\
a message
appears on the multi-information display.
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.
WARNING
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.
Airbag System Indicators
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 weight
sensors detect 65 lbs (29 kg) or less, the weight of an
infant or small child, on the seat.
U.S. Canada
Infants and small children should always ride properly restrained in a b\
ack seat.
Objects placed on the seat can also cause the indicator to come on.
If the front passenger‘s seat is empty, the passenger’s front airbag will not deploy
and the indicator will not come on.
If the indicator comes on with no occupant or objects in the front passe\
nger’s seat,
something may be interfering with the weight sensors, such as:
•
An object hanging on the seat or in the seat-back pocket.
•
A child seat or other object pressing against the rear of the seat-back.\
•
A rear passenger pushing or pulling on the back of the front passenger’\
s seat.
•
The front seat or seat-back is forced against an object on the seat or fl\
oor
behind it.
•
An object placed under the front passenger’s seat.
If none of these conditions exist, have your vehicle checked by a dealer\
as soon as
possible.
The passenger airbag off indicator may go on and off repeatedly if the t\
otal weight
on the seat is near the airbag cutoff threshold.

n Airbag System Components
n 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 infl ated, the control unit and other related parts m\
ust be replaced.
Similarly, once an automatic seat belt tensioner has been activated, it must be
replaced.
When the vehicle has been in a moderate-to-severe collision
Even if the airbags did not infl ate, have your dealer inspect the fol\
lowing: 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 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.
