The curtain airbags are contained in the front
pillars and roof side rail. The curtain airbag is
designed to inflate only on the side of the
vehicle that is impacted, even with no passen-
ger in the front seat.
 Do not place objects, such as packages or
pets, between the airbags and the driver
or the front passenger. Such objects can
adversely affect airbag performance, or
cause serious injury or death when the
airbag deploys.
 Immediately after airbag inflation, some
parts of the airbag system will be hot. Do
not touch them. You could be burned.
 The airbag system is designed to work
only once. After the airbags deploy, they
will not work again. They must promptly
be replaced and the entire airbag system
must be inspected by a certified i-MiEV
dealer.
