1-1. For safe use
“PASSENGER AIR BAG” indicator
Airbag sensor assembly
The main SRS airbag system components are shown above. The SRS air-
bag system is controlled by the airbag sensor assembly. As the airbags
deploy, a chemical reaction in the inflators quickly fills the airbags with non-
toxic gas to help restrain the motion of the occupants.
■If the SRS airbags deploy (inflate)
●Slight abrasions, burns, bruising etc., may be sustained from SRS airbags,
due to the extremely high speed deployment (inflation) by hot gases.
●A loud noise and white powder will be emitted.
●Parts of the airbag module (steering wheel hub, airbag cover and inflator) as well as the front seats, parts of the
front and rear pillars, and roof side rails, may be hot for several minutes.
The airbag itself may also be hot.
●The windshield may crack.
●The hybrid system will be stopped and fuel supply to the engine will be
stopped. ( P.82)
●The brakes and stop lights will be con-
trolled automatically. ( P.337)
●The interior lights will turn on automat-
ically. ( P.359)
●The emergency flashers will turn on
automatically. ( P.430)
●Vehicles with eCall: If any of the fol-
lowing situations occur, the system is
designed to send an emergency call* to the eCall control center, notifying
them of the vehicle’s location (without needing to push the “SOS” button) and an agent will attempt to speak
with the occupants to ascertain the level of emergency and assistance required. If the occupants are unable
to communicate, the agent automati- cally treats the call as an emergency and helps to dispatch the necessary
emergency services. ( P.65) • An SRS airbag is deployed.
• A seat belt pretensioner is activated. • The vehicle is involved in a severe rear-end collision.*: In some cases, the call cannot be
made. ( P. 6 6 )
■SRS airbag deployment conditions
(SRS front airbags)
●The SRS front airbags will deploy in
the event of an impact that exceeds the set threshold level (the level of force corresponding to an approxi-
mately 20 - 30 km/h [12 - 18 mph] frontal collision with a fixed wall that does not move or deform).
However, this threshold velocity will be
considerably higher in the following situ-
ations:
• If the vehicle strikes an object, such as a parked vehicle or sign pole, which can move or deform on impact
• If the vehicle is involved in an under- ride collision, such as a collision in which the front of the vehicle “under-
rides”, or goes under, the bed of a truck
●Depending on the type of collision, it is possible that only the seat belt pretensioners will activate.
■SRS airbag deployment conditions
(SRS side and curtain shield air- bags and SRS front seat center air-bags)
●The SRS side and curtain shield air-bags and SRS front seat center air-
bags will deploy in the event of an impact that exceeds the set threshold level (the level of force corresponding
to the impact force produced by an approximately 1500 kg [3300 lb.] vehi-

cle colliding with the vehicle cabin
from a direction perpendicular to the vehicle orientation at an approximate speed of 20 - 30 km/h [12 - 18 mph]).
●Both SRS curtain shield airbags may deploy in the event of a severe side
collision.
●Both SRS curtain shield airbags may
also deploy in the event of a severe frontal collision.
■Conditions under which the SRS airbags may deploy (inflate), other
than a collision
The SRS front airbags and SRS side and curtain shield airbags may also
deploy if a serious impact occurs to the underside of your vehicle. Some exam-ples are shown in the illustration.
●Hitting a curb, edge of pavement or hard surface
●Falling into or jumping over a deep hole
●Landing hard or falling
■Types of collisions that may not deploy the SRS airbags (SRS front airbags)
The SRS front airbags do not generally inflate if the vehicle is involved in a side or rear collision, if it rolls over, or if it is
involved in a low-speed frontal collision. But, whenever a collision of any type causes sufficient forward deceleration of
the vehicle, deployment of the SRS front airbags may occur.
●Collision from the side
●Collision from the rear
●Vehicle rollover
■Types of collisions that may not
deploy the SRS airbags (SRS side and curtain shield airbags and SRS front seat center airbags)
The SRS side and curtain shield airbags and SRS front seat center airbags may not activate if the vehicle is subjected to
a collision from the side at certain angles, or a collision to the side of the vehicle body other than the passenger
compartment.
●Collision from the side to the vehicle
body other than the passenger com- partment
●Collision from the side at an angle
The SRS side airbags and SRS front
seat center airbags do not generally inflate if the vehicle is involved in a fron-tal or rear collision, if it rolls over, or if it
is involved in a low-speed side collision.
●Collision from the front
●Collision from the rear
●Vehicle rollover
