Additional Information About Your SRS

SRS Components

Your Supplemental Restraint System

(SRS) includes:

Two front airbags. The driver's

airbag is stored in the center of
the steering wheel; the front
passenger's airbag is stored in the
dashboard. Both are marked "SRS

AIRBAG."

Sensors that can detect a
moderate to severe frontal
collision.

A sophisticated electronic system

that continually monitors
information about the sensors, the
control unit, and the airbag
activators when the ignition is ON

(II).

An indicator light on the

instrument panel that alerts you to
a possible problem with the

system (see page

47

).

Emergency backup power in case

your car's electrical system is

disconnected in a crash.

How Your Airbags Work

If you ever have a moderate to
severe frontal collision, the sensors
will detect rapid deceleration and
signal the control unit to instantly
inflate the airbags.

During a crash, your seat belt helps
restrain your lower body and torso.

Your airbag provides a cushion to
help restrain and protect your head

and chest.
