The front passenger front and side air bags and the seat belt pretensioner are designed
to deploy when the front passenger occupant classification sensor detects a passenger
sitting on the front passenger's seat.
*2 (With Front Passenger Occupant Classification System)
In a roll-over accident, the seat belt pretensioners and the curtain air bags deploy.
NOTE
In a frontal offset collision, the equipped air bags and pretensioners may all deploy depending on the
direction, angle, and rate of impact.
