4.7.1.1. Supplemental front-impact air bag system

The supplemental front-impact air bag consists of a Driver Air Bag located at the centre of the steering wheel and a Front Passenger Air Bag located in the instrument panel above the glove box.

The supplemental front-impact air bag system can help cushion the impact to the head and chest area or the driver and/or front passenger in certain higher severity frontal collisions, although it may inflate if the forces in another type of collision are similar to those of a higher severity frontal impact. It may not inflate in certain frontal collisions. Vehicle damage (or lack of it) is not always an indication of proper supplemental front impact air bag system operation.
