The Personal Safety System can adapt the deployment strategy of your Page 71 Seating and Safety Restraints Front passenger sensing system For airbags to do their job they must inflate with great force, and this force can pose a potentially deadly risk to occupants that are very close to the airbag when it begins to inflate. For some occupants, like infants in rear-facing child seats, this occurs because they are initially sitting very close to the airbag.
This maximizes the effectiveness of the safety belts and helps properly position the occupant relative to the airbag to improve protection. Page 73 Seating and Safety Restraints To reduce the risk of injury, make sure children sit where they can be properly restrained.
