with children restrained using a properly installed child or booster seat

because it is designed to inflate downward from the headliner above the

doors along the side window opening.

The Safety Canopy娂 system is designed to activate when the vehicle

sustains lateral deceleration sufficient to cause the side crash sensor to

close an electrical circuit that initiates Safety Canopy娂 inflation or when

a certain likelihood of a rollover event is detected by the rollover sensor.

The Safety Canopy娂 is mounted to roof side-rail sheet metal, behind the

headliner, above the first and second row seats. In certain lateral

collisions or rollover events, the Safety Canopy娂 system will be

activated, regardless of which seats are occupied. The Safety Canopy娂 is

designed to inflate between the side window area and occupants to

further enhance protection provided in side impact collisions and rollover

events.

The fact that the Safety Canopy娂 did not activate in a collision does not

mean that something is wrong with the system. Rather, it means the

forces were not of the type sufficient to cause activation. The Safety

Canopy娂 is designed to inflate in certain side impact collisions or

rollover events, not in rear impact, frontal or near-frontal collisions,

unless the collision causes sufficient lateral deceleration or rollover

likelihood.

Several Safety Canopy娂

system components get hot

after inflation. Do not touch them

after inflation.

If the Safety Canopy娂 system has deployed, the Safety

Canopy娂 will not function again unless replaced. The

Safety Canopy娂 system (including the A, B and C pillar trim)

must be inspected and serviced by a qualified technician in

accordance with the vehicle service manual. If the Safety

Canopy娂 is not replaced, the unrepaired area will increase the risk of

injury in a collision.
