Additional Information About Your Airbags

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."

Automatic seat belt tensioners

(see page

47

).

Sensors that can detect a

moderate to severe frontal

collision.

A sophisticated electronic system

that continually monitors

information about the sensors, the

control unit, the airbag activators,

and driver and passenger seat belt

use 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 vehicle'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 and activate the

automatic seat belt tensioners.
