ABSTRACT:
A method of folding an airbag is provided for limiting allowable travel of the first portion of the airbag face panel as the airbag is deployed and for causing complete filling of the airbag prior to engagement with a vehicle occupant. The airbag includes a first end adapted to envelop an inflator. The airbag is laid substantially flat, with the first portion of the airbag face panel closely adjacent the first end. The remainder of the airbag is subsequently collapsed over the first portion while the first portion remains closely adjacent the first end.
