- Fig. 1 Location of head-protection airbags above the doors
The head-protection airbags work together with the side airbag system to give extra protection in a side impact.
The head-protection airbags are located above the doors on the left and right sides of the vehicle Fig. 1. The locations of the airbags are marked with the word "AIRBAG".
In conjunction with the three-point seat belts and side airbags, the head-protection airbags give the occupants additional protection against head and neck injuries in a severe side collision WARNING!.
Together with other design features (including cross-braces in the seats and the overall strength of the body structure), the head-protection and side airbag system offers an effective further improvement to occupant protection in side impacts.
