HOW DOES THE SAFETY
CANOPY™ WORK - COUPE
WARNING: Do not place objects
or mount equipment on or near the
headliner at the siderail that may come
into contact with a deploying curtain
airbag. Failure to follow these
instructions may increase the risk of
personal injury in the event of a crash.
WARNING: Do not lean your head
on the door. The curtain airbag could
injure you as it deploys from the
headliner.
WARNING: All occupants of your
vehicle, including the driver, should
always properly wear their seatbelts,
even when an airbag supplemental
restraint system is provided. Failure to
properly wear your seatbelt could
seriously increase the risk of injury or
death.
The Safety Canopy deploys during
significant side crashes or when a certain
likelihood of a rollover event is detected
by the rollover sensor. The Safety Canopy
is mounted to the roof side rail sheet metal,
behind the headliner, above each row of
seats.
In certain sideways crashes or rollover
events, the Safety Canopy activates,
regardless of which seats are occupied.
The Safety Canopy is designed to inflate
between the side window area and
occupants to further enhance protection
provided in side impact crashes and
rollover events.
The system consists of:
• Safety Canopy curtain airbags above
the trim panels over the front and rear
side windows. They are identified by a
label or wording on the headliner or
roof pillar trim.
• A flexible headliner which opens above
the side doors to allow air curtain
deployment
• Crash sensors and monitoring system
with a readiness indicator. See Crash
Sensors and Airbag Indicator (page
58).
Properly restrain children 12 years old and
under in the rear seats. The Safety Canopy
airbags will not interfere with children
restrained using a properly installed child
or booster seat because it is designed to
inflate downward from the headliner above
the doors along the side window opening.
