How does an air bag restrain?

moderate to severe frontal or near-frontal collisions,

even belted occupants can contact the steering wheel or the

instrument panel.

bags supplement the protection

provided by safety belts.

Air

bags distribute the force of

the impact more evenly over the occupant’s upper body,

stopping the occupant more gradually. But

air

bags would

not help you in many types of collisions, including

rollovers, rear impacts and side impacts, primarily because

occupant’s motion is not toward those

air

bags.

Air

bags should never

supplement to safety belts,

moderate to

severe fi-ontal or near-frontal collisions.

What

will

you see after an air bag inflates?

After an air bag inflates, it quickly deflates, so quickly

that some people may not even realize the air bag

inflated. Some components

the air bag module in

the steering wheel hub for the driver’s air bag, or the

instrument panel for the right front passenger’s bag, will

be hot for

a short time. The parts of the bag that come

into contact with you may be warm, but not too hot to

touch. There will be some smoke and dust corning from

vents in the deflated air bags.

Air

bag inflation doesn’t

prevent the driver from seeing

from being able

steer the vehicle, nor does

stop people from leaving

the vehicle.

When an air bag inflates, there is dust in the air.

This dust could cause breathing problems

for

people

with

a history of asthma or other

breathing trouble.

avoid this, everyone in the

vehicle should get out as soon as it is safe to do

so.

you have breathing problems but can’t get out

of the vehicle after an air bag inflates, then get

fresh air by opening a window or door.
