Your airbag system includes:
Two SRS (Supplemental Restraint
System) airbags. The driver’s
airbag is stored in the center of
the steering wheel; the passenger’s
airbag is stored in the dashboard.
Both are marked ‘‘SRS AIRBAG.’’
Automatic seat belt tensioners
(see page
).
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 in
the ON (II) position.
An indicator on the instrument
panel that alerts you to a possible
problem with the system (see
page
).
Emergency backup power in case
your vehicle’s electrical system is
disconnected in a crash.
If you ever have a moderate to
severe frontal collision, sensors will
detect the vehicle’s rapid
deceleration. If the rate of
deceleration is high enough, the
control unit will instantly inflate the
driver’s and passenger’s airbags.
