The location of air bags and warning labels

[SR13340(ALL)07/95]

If a collision occurs, the sensors sense the severity of the impact

and activate the air bags if necessary. The air bag system is

designed to deploy in frontal and front-angled collisions more

severe than hitting a parked vehicle (of similar size and weight)

head-on at about 28 mph (45 km/h). Because the system senses

the crash severity rather than vehicle speed, some frontal

collisions at speeds above 28 mph (45 km/h) will not inflate the

air bag.

[SR13350(ALL)12/95]

When the sensors activate the system, the air bags inflate

rapidly, filling with non-toxic nitrogen gas in a fraction of a

second. Immediately after inflation, the air bags deflate by

releasing the nitrogen gas through vent holes. The whole

process takes place in a matter of seconds.
