Other information:
The SRS side airbag and SRS curtain
airbag can function only when the ignition
switch is in the “ON” position.
The following airbags deploy independently
of each other since each has its
own impact sensor.
Driver’s SRS side airbag
Front passenger’s SRS side airbag
SRS curtain airbag (right-hand side)
SRS curtain airbag (left-hand side)
Therefore, they may not both deploy in the
same accident...
