ABSTRACT:
Disclosed are embodiments of methods of folding an inflatable airbag cushion for storage within a vehicle. In one implementation of the inventive method, the folding of the airbag cushion creates a first arm and a second arm, the first arm folded on top of the second arm, such that during deployment of the airbag cushion with an obstruction, the first arm is configured to contact an obstruction before completely unfolding and thereby at least partially biasing the deployment of the airbag cushion.
