frontal crash protection to front seat occupants and is designed to help
further reduce the risk of airbag-related injuries. The system is able to
analyze different occupant classifications and conditions and crash
severity before activating the appropriate safety devices to help better
protect a range of occupants in a variety of frontal crash situations.
Your vehicle’s Personal Safety System™ consists of:
• Driver and passenger dual-stage airbag supplemental restraints.

• Front outboard safety belts with pretensioners, energy management

retractors, and safety belt usage sensors.

• Driver’s seat position sensor.

• Front crash severity sensor.

• Front passenger sensing system

• Passenger Airbag Off indicator light.

• Restraints Control Module (RCM) with impact and safing sensors.

• Restraint system warning light and back-up tone.

• The electrical wiring for the airbags, crash sensor(s), safety belt

pretensioners, front safety belt usage sensors, driver seat position
sensor, and indicator lights.

How does the Personal Safety System™ work?
The Personal Safety System™ can adapt the deployment strategy of your
