Side Airbags

Safe Driving
When the sensors detect a moderate-to-
severe side impact, the control unit signals the
side airbag on the impact side to immediately
inflate.
■
When a side airbag deploys with little or no visible damage
Because the airbag system senses sudden acceleration, a strong impact to the side
of the vehicle's framework can cause a side airbag to deploy. In such cases, there
may be little or no damage, but the side impact sensors detected a severe enough
impact to deploy the airbag.
■
When a side airbag may not deploy, even though visible damage appears
severe
It is possible for a side airbag not to deploy during an impact that results in
apparently severe damage. This can occur when the point of impact was towards
the far front or rear of the vehicle, or when the vehicle's crushable body parts
absorbed most of the crash energy. In either case, the side airbag would not have
been needed nor provided protection even if it had deployed.
■
Operation
1
Do not cover or replace the front seat-back covers
without consulting a dealer.
Improperly replacing or covering front seat-back
covers can prevent your side airbags from properly
deploying during a side impact.
Do not let the front passenger lean sideways with
their head in the deployment path of the side airbag.
An inflating side airbag can strike with strong force
and seriously injure the passenger.

Side Curtain Airbags
The side curtain airbags help to protect the heads of the driver and any passengers
during a moderate-to-severe side impact.
The side curtain airbags are located in the
ceiling above the side windows on both sides
of the vehicle.
■
Housing Locations

The side curtain airbags are most effective when an
occupant is wearing their seat belt properly and
sitting upright, well back in their seat.
Do not attach any objects to the side windows or roof
pillars as they can interfere with the proper operation
of the side curtain airbags.

Airbag Care
You do not need to, and should not, perform any maintenance on or replace any
airbag system components yourself. However, you should have your vehicle
inspected by a dealer in the following situations:
■
When the airbags have deployed
If an airbag has inflated, the control unit and other related parts must be replaced.
Similarly, once an automatic seat belt tensioner has been activated, it must be
replaced.
■
When the vehicle has been in a moderate-to-severe collision
Even if the airbags did not inflate, have your dealer inspect the following: the seat
belt tensioners for the front seats and rear seats, and each seat belt that was worn
during the crash.
1
The removal of airbag components from the vehicle is
prohibited.
In case of malfunction, or shutdown, or after the
airbag inflation/seat belt tensioner operation, ask a
qualified personnel for handling.
We recommend against the use of salvaged airbag
system components, including the airbag, tensioners,
sensors, and control unit.

Pop-up Hood System
About the Pop-up Hood System
The pop-up hood system is designed to help to reduce the possible head injuries of
a pedestrian if they experience a frontal impact with your vehicle.
Your vehicle strikes a pedestrian or other objects at moderate or higher speed.
When the pedestrian impact sensors detect a
certain amount of impact, the pop-up hood
system is activated and the rear of the bonnet
will raise.
The raised bonnet can help to reduce
pedestrian head injuries.
The power units are located in the vehicle
front side of the hinges.

NOTICE
Do not attempt to open the bonnet after the pop-up
hood system has been activated. After the system
activation, make sure the raised bonnet does not
interfere with visibility, and then drive slowly and
carefully.
If the bonnet is not fully closed, it may not work
properly. Make sure the bonnet is fully closed before
driving.

The following conditions may also activate the system.
•
A severe impact on the underside of your vehicle.
•
Driving over speed bumps at high speed, or over a large pothole.
•
When the objects impact the pedestrian impact sensors.
The system may not activate if your vehicle is:
•
Impacted from the rear or side.
•
Tipped over or rolled over.
•
A pedestrian is struck at an angle.
Other factors, such as where, at which angle, or at what vehicle speed the impact
has occurred, may prevent the pop-up hood system from activating.

For the pop-up hood system to work properly:
•
Always use the same size tyres as the original. The
system may not read your vehicle speed correctly
with the different size tyres.
•
Never apply force to the system’s power unit. It can
be damaged if you slam the bonnet shut.
•
Do not impact the pedestrian impact sensors in the
front bumper.

Child Safety
Protecting Child Passengers
Each year, many children are injured or killed in vehicle crashes because they are
either unrestrained or not properly restrained. In fact, vehicle crashes are the
number one cause of death of children aged 12 and under.
To reduce the number of child deaths and injuries, infants and children should be
properly restrained when they ride in a vehicle.

WARNING
NEVER use a rearward facing child restraint
on a seat protected by an ACTIVE AIRBAG
in front of it, DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY to
the CHILD can occur.
3
WARNING
Children who are unrestrained or
improperly restrained can be seriously
injured or killed in a crash.
Any child too small for a seat belt should be
properly restrained in an approved child
restraint system. A larger child should be
properly restrained with a seat belt, using a
booster seat if necessary.

Safe Driving
Children should sit properly restrained in a
rear seat. This is because:
•
An inflating front or side airbag can injure
or kill a child sitting in the front seat.
•
A child in the front seat is more likely to
interfere with the driver's ability to safely
control the vehicle.
•
Statistics show that children of all sizes and
ages are safer when they are properly
restrained in a rear seat.
1
In many countries, the law requires all children aged 12
and under, and whose height are shorter than 150 cm
(60 inches) be properly restrained in a rear seat.
In many countries, it is required to use an officially
approved and suitable child restraint system for
transporting a child on any passenger seat. Check
your local legal requirement.
Child restraint systems must meet UN Regulation No. 44
or No. 129 or the regulations of the subject countries.

•
Never hold a child on your lap because it is impossible to protect them in the
event of a collision.
•
Never put a seat belt over yourself and a child. During a crash, the belt would
likely press deep into the child and cause serious or fatal injuries.
•
Never let two children use the same seat belt. Both children could be very
seriously injured in a crash.
•
Any child who is too small to wear a seat belt must be properly restrained in an
approved child restraint system that is properly secured to the vehicle using the
seat belt or the child restraint anchorage system.
•
Do not allow children to operate the doors, windows or seat adjustments.
•
Do not leave children in the vehicle unattended, especially in hot weather when
the inside of the vehicle can get hot enough to kill them. They could also activate
vehicle controls causing it to move unexpectedly.

WARNING:
Use the power window lock button to
prevent children from opening the windows. Using
this feature will prevent children from playing with
the windows, which could expose them to hazards or
distract the driver.

Safety of Infants and Small Children
An infant must be properly restrained in a rear-facing, reclining child restraint system
until the infant reaches the child restraint system manufacturer's weight or height
limit for the seat, and the infant is at least one year old.
■
Positioning a rear-facing child restraint
system
Child restraint system must be placed and
secured in a rear seating position.
u
We recommend that you install the child
restraint system directly behind the front
passenger’s seat, move the seat as far
forward as needed, and leave it
unoccupied.
u
Make sure that there is no contact
between the child restraint system and
the seat in front of it.
If there is, you may wish to get a smaller
rear-facing child restraint system.

Placing a rear-facing child restraint system
in the front seat can result in serious injury
or death if the passenger’s front airbag
inflates.
Always place a rear-facing child restraint
system in the back seat, not the front.

When properly installed, a rear-facing child restraint system may prevent the driver
or a front passenger from moving their seat all the way back, or from locking their
seat-back in the desired position.
1
Many experts recommend use of a rear-facing child
restraint system for a child up to two years old if the
child’s height and weight are appropriate for a rear-
facing child restraint system.
Rear-facing child restraint systems should never be
installed in a front-facing position.
Always refer to the child restraint system
manufacturer’s instructions before installation.
If the passenger’s front airbag inflates, it can hit the
rear-facing child restraint system with great force,
which can dislodge or strike the system, and seriously
injure the child.
If it is absolutely unavoidable to install a rear-facing
child restraint system in the front passenger seat,
manually turn off the passenger front airbag system.

We strongly recommend placing a front-
facing child restraint system in a rear seating
position.
Placing a front-facing child restraint system in the front seat can be hazardous. A
rear seat is the safest place for a child.

Educate yourself about the laws and regulations
regarding child restraint system use where you are
driving, and follow the child restraint system
manufacturer's instructions.

WARNING
Placing a front-facing child restraint system
in the front seat can result in serious injury
or death if the front airbag inflates.
If you must place a front-facing child
restraint system in front, move the vehicle
seat as far back as possible, and properly
restrain the child.

Some child restraint systems are lower anchorage compatible. Some have a rigid-
type connector while others have a flexible-type connector. Both are equally easy to
use. Some existing and previously owned child restraint systems can only be installed
using the seat belt. Whichever type you choose, follow the child restraint system
manufacturer’s use and care instructions including recommended expiration dates
as well as the instructions in this manual. Proper installation is key to maximising
your child’s safety.
The flexible type may not be available in your country.
In seating positions and vehicles not equipped with lower anchorages, install a child
restraint system using the seat belt and a top tether for added security. This is
because all child restraint systems must be secured with the seat belt when the
lower anchorage system is not in use. In addition, the child restraint system
manufacturer may advise that a seat belt be used to attach an ISOFIX restraint
system once a child reaches a specified weight. Please read the child restraint system
owner’s manual for proper installation instructions.
■
Important consideration when selecting a child restraint system
Make sure the child restraint system meets the following three requirements:
•
The child restraint system is the correct type and size for the child.
•
The child restraint system is the correct type for the seating position.
•
The child restraint system is compliant with safety standards. We recommend a
child restraint system compliant with UN Regulation No. 44 or No. 129, or the
regulations of the subject countries. Look for the approval mark on the system
and the manufacturer’s statement of compliance on the box.
