Curtain air bags are located along both
sides of the roof rails above the front and
rear doors.
They are designed to help protect the
heads of the front seat occupants and
the rear outboard seat occupants in
certain side impact collisions.
The curtain air bags are designed to
deploy during certain side impact
collisions, depending on the crash
severity.
The side and curtain air bags on both
sides of the vehicle may deploy if a
rollover or possible rollover is detected.
The curtain air bags are not designed
to deploy in all side impact or rollover
situations.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury or
death from an inflating curtain air bag,
take the following precautions:
- All seat occupants must wear
seat belts at all times to help keep
occupants positioned properly.
- Properly secure child restraints as far
away from the door as possible.
- Do not place any objects over the air
bag. Also, do not attach any objects
around the area the air bag inflates
such as the door, side door glass,
front and rear pillar, roof side rail.
- Do not hang other objects except
clothes, especially hard or breakable
objects. In an accident, it may cause
vehicle damage or personal injury.
- Do not allow passengers to lean their
heads or bodies onto doors, put their
arms on the doors, stretch their arms
out of the window, or place objects
between the doors and seats.
- Do not open or repair the side curtain
air bags.

the seat belt alone...
The SRS consists of the following
components:
1. Driver’s front air bag module
2. Passenger’s front air bag module

Operating conditions
If ‘Active Assist’ or ‘Warning Only’ is set
from the Settings menu, Reverse Parking
Collision-Avoidance Assist will be in
the ready status when the following
conditions are satisfied:
-- The tailgate is closed
-- The gear is shifted to R (Reverse)
-- Vehicle speed is below 6 mph (10
km/h)
-- System components such as the rear
view camera and the rear ultrasoni..
The aspect ratio is lower than 50 on low
aspect ratio tires.
Because low aspect ratio tires are
optimized for handling and braking, their
sidewall is a little stiffer than a standard
tire. Also low aspect ratio tires tend to be
wider and consequently have a greater
contact patch with the road surface. In
some instances they may generate more
road noise compared with standard tires.
CAUTION..
