Honda CR-V: Airbags / Side Curtain Airbags
The side curtain airbags help protect the heads of the driver and passengers
in the
outer seating positions during a moderate-to-severe side impact. The side
curtain
airbags equipped in this vehicle are also designed to help reduce the likelihood
of
partial and complete ejection of vehicle occupants through side windows in
crashes,
particularly rollover crashes.
The side airbags help protect the torso and pelvis of the driver or a front
passenger
during a moderate-to-severe side impact.
Housing Locations
The side airbags are housed in the outside
edge of the driver's and passenger's seat-
backs...
The side curtain airbags are located in the
ceiling above the side windows on both sides
of the vehicle.
To get the best protection from the side curtain
airbags, occupants should wear their seat belts
properly and sit upright and well back in their seats...
Other information:
The system may not properly detect lane markings and the position of your
vehicle
under certain conditions. Some examples of these conditions are listed below.
Environmental conditions
Driving in bad weather (rain, fog, snow, etc.).
Sudden changes between light and dark, such as an entrance or exit of a
tunnel...
For the safety of you and your passengers, make a habit of checking these
items
each time before you drive.
After everyone has entered the vehicle, be sure all doors and the
tailgate are
closed and locked. Locking the doors and the tailgate helps prevent an
occupant
from being ejected and an outsider from unexpectedly opening a door or the
tailgate...
