  Driver Airbag - Location The driver airbag and both detonators (R12/13, R12/14) are located under the impact absorber in the steering wheel.  
  Driver Airbag - Task The driver airbag serves to protect the driver from injury in the event of a head-on collision. When a frontal crash occurs, the airbag inflates within approximately 45 msec to fill the space between the steering wheel and the driver and thus cushion and stop the forward movement of the driver's body.
