Construction

• The curtain air bag modules are equipped along the roof edge between the A and B pillars.

• The curtain air bag module is composed of the inflator, pipe, bag cover, and air bag.

• When the curtain air bag deploys, the A-pillar trim and headliner is spread apart by argon gas generated from the inflator, inflating the air bag.

• Refer to SAS CONTROL MODULE Air Bag Module and Pre-tensioner Seat Belt Deployment Operation. (See SAS CONTROL MODULE CONSTRUCTION/OPERATION.)

• The inflator operation is the same as the side air bag module. Refer to SIDE AIR BAG MODULE. (See SIDE AIR BAG MODULE CONSTRUCTION/OPERATION.)
