The front airbags and driver
’s knee airbag are
designed
to deploy
when
the
vehicle
suf
fers
a
moderate
to
severe
frontal
impact.
A typical
condition
is shown
in
the
illustration
to
the
left. The front airbags and driver
’s knee airbag are
designed
to
deploy
only
in
certain
moderate
to severe
frontal
collisions
within
the
shaded
area
between
the
arrows
in the
illustration
to
the right.
The
front
airbags
and
driver
’s knee
airbag
will
deploy
if the
impact
to the
vehicle’
s main
structure
is above
a specific
threshold
level.
The
threshold
level
is approximately
15
mph
(25
km/h)
for
a frontal
collision
straight
into
a
solid
flat
wall
that
does
not
bend
or deform.
If
the
impact
to
the
vehicle’
s main
structure
is
below
this threshold
level,
the fro
nt
airbags
and
driver
’s knee
airbag
may
not
deploy
. This
threshold
level
may
also
be
higher
if the
vehi-
cle
hits
something
that
absorbs
the
impact,
either
by
bending
or
moving
(for
example,
another
stationary
vehicle,
a pole
or
a guard
rail).
The
beginning
stage
of
airbag
inflation
is the
most
forceful,
and
can
cause
serious
injuries
or
death
if you
are
too
close
to the
deploying
airbag.
Accordingly
, it is important
that
you
always wear the available seat belt.

In
certain
types
of
front
collisions,
the
front
airbags
and
driver
’s knee
airbag
may
not
deploy
, even
if the
deformation
of
the
body
seems
to be
large,
because
the
vehicle’
s body
structure is designed to absorb the impact and deform
in order
to help
protect
the
occupants.
Some
typical
situations
where
the

air-
bags
