The SABICs and SABs (Side Air Bags) are
designed to activate in certain side impacts
and certain rollover events. The Occupant
Restraint
Controller
(ORC)
determines
whether the deployment of the Side Air Bags
in a particular side impact or rollover event is
appropriate, based on the severity and type of
collision. Vehicle damage by itself is not a
good indicator of whether or not Side Air Bags
should have deployed.
Side Air Bags are a supplement to the seat
belt restraint system. Side Air Bags deploy in
less time than it takes to blink your eyes.
WARNING!
• Occupants, including children, who are
up against or very close to Side Air Bags
can be seriously injured or killed. Occu-
pants, including children, should never
lean on or sleep against the door, side
windows, or area where the side air bags
inflate, even if they are in an infant or
child restraint.
• Seat belts (and child restraints where
appropriate) are necessary for your pro-

tection in all collisions. They also help
keep you in position, away from an in-
flating Side Air Bag. To get the best
protection from the Side Air Bags, occu-
pants must wear their seat belts properly
and sit upright with their backs against
the seats. Children must be properly
restrained in a child restraint or booster
seat that is appropriate for the size of the
child.
WARNING!
• Side Air Bags need room to inflate. Do
not lean against the door or window. Sit
upright in the center of the seat.
• Being too close to the Side Air Bags
during deployment could cause you to
be severely injured or killed.
• Relying on the Side Air Bags alone could
lead to more severe injuries in a colli-
sion. The Side Air Bags work with your
seat belt to restrain you properly. In
some collisions, Side Air Bags won’t
WARNING!
deploy at all. Always wear your seat belt
even though you have Side Air Bags.
NOTE:
Air bag covers may not be obvious in the
interior trim, but they will open during air bag
deployment.
Side Impacts
In side impacts, the side impact sensors aid
the ORC in determining the appropriate re-
sponse to impact events. The system is cali-
brated to deploy the Side Air Bags on the
impact side of the vehicle during impacts
that require Side Air Bag occupant protec-
tion. In side impacts, the Side Air Bags de-
ploy independently; a left side impact de-
ploys the left Side Air Bags only and a right
side impact deploys the right Side Air Bags
only.
The Side Air Bags will not deploy in all side
collisions, including some collisions at cer-
tain angles, or some side collisions that do
not impact the area of the passenger com-
