The front airbags and driver’s knee airbag are not designed to deploy in conditions where they cannot typically provide protection to the occupant.
Such conditions are shown in the illustration.

2- Side collisions
3- Vehicle rolls onto its side or roof
Because the front airbags and driver’s knee airbag do not protect the occupant in all types of collisions, be sure to always properly wear your seat belts.
