The driver/passenger airbags and the driver/passenger Seat Belt Tensioners (SBT) were designed to reduce the risk of an injury to the chest and head in the event of a head-on collision.

The side airbags were designed to protect primarily the upper body and also to help protect the head in the event of a side collision.

Malfunctions in the SRS system are indicated on the Instrument Cluster (IC) by the airbag warning indicator lamp.
