• The decorated panel has been adopted for the

front door trim.

• The bottle holder for bottles with shapes that are

difficult to keep upright has been adopted for the
front door pocket.

• The front door pocket with a large capacity has

been adopted for items such as A4-size map.
Also, the rear door pocket has been added.

• The shock absorbing arm rest has been adopted

which reduces the mid section injuries to passen-
gers by collapsing upon side impact.

• The arm rest which is formed with cloth has been

adopted to create a continuous flow with the
ornament section.<GSR>

• Separate artificial leather upholstery armrests

with stitching are adopted to emphasize high
quality.<MR>

Interior design with safe material has been adopted,
achieving more safe and comfortable interior.

• Energy absorption pad and rib have been

adopted to the inside of headliner. This reduces
head injuries upon the secondary impact against
the cabin during a collision, and improves safety.

CAUTION

• Driver’s and passenger’s (front) air bags,

knee air bag and seat belt pre-tensioner
deploy and operate in frontal collisions that
exceed the threshold to activate the SRS
(Supplemental Restraint System).

• The front air bag deploys when a vehicle col-

lides head-on with a concrete (fixed) wall at
approximately 25 km/h (15 mph) or more, or
when a vehicle suffers a severe impact from
the front side.The side air bag deploys when a
center of side body suffers a severe impact.

• The front air bags and pre-tensioner may not

work under the following conditions:

• A frontal collision is less than the specific

value.

• The collision is from the rear
• The collision is from the side
• The vehicle rolls over or is in a similar

position.

• The side-airbags and curtain air bags may not

work under the following conditions:

• The collision is from the front
• The collision is from the rear

• Driver's and passenger's (front) air bags, side-air-

bags, knee air bag, curtain air bags and seat
belts with pre-tensioner have been installed to all
the vehicles as standard.

• The SRS is a system that is effective with the

seat belt fastened, and it is designed as a supple-
mental system of the seat belt.

• The advanced air bag system has been adopted

to the driver's and passenger's (front) sides.
When a frontal impact exceeds the threshold
upon a frontal collision, or depending on the seat
position (driver's seat side), the air bag inflates
the cushion air bag in two stages, improving the
protection for the front seat passengers.

• The driver's knee air bag is activated when an

impact exceeds the threshold upon a frontal colli-
sion, and the cushion air bag is instantaneously
inflated for better protection of the driver.

• The side-airbag is activated when an impact

exceeds the threshold upon a side collision, and
the cushion air bag is instantaneously inflated to
protect the chest area of the front seat passen-
gers.

• The curtain air bag is activated simultaneously

with the side-airbag upon a side collision to pro-
tect the heads of the front seat and second seat
passengers.

• For the inflator, the gas which is harmless to the

human body has been adopted.

• The seat belt pre-tensioner is activated simulta-

neously with the deployment of driver's and pas-
senger's (front) air bags in case of a frontal
collision. Seat belts are pulled in to eliminate the
slack upon a collision, thus improving the initial
occupant restraint, and reducing the travel dis-
tance of the occupants.
