SUPPLEMENTARY RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)
PASSENGER AIR BAG
DEACTIVATION
WARNING: Your Revero is equipped
with an air bag system that has no
provision for switching off or deactivating
the front passenger air bag.
WARNING: Do not use seat
accessories that block the inflation
path of a seat-mounted side impact
airbag. Never secure anything to the roof
of a vehicle with roof-rail airbags by
routing a rope or tie-down through any
door or window opening. If you do, the path
of an inflating roof-rail airbag will be
blocked.
AIR BAG WARNING LABELS
Air bag warning information is printed on
the driver and passenger sun visors.
WARNING: Even with advanced air
bags children can be killed or
seriously injured by the airbag. The back
seat is the safest place for children. Never
put a rear-facing child seat in the front.
Always use seat belts and child restraints.
SRS WARNING INDICATOR
A warning indicator in the DIS alerts
you of any malfunction of the air
bag system.
The components of the system being
monitored include:
•
SRS warning indicator
•
Clock spring
•
Air bag modules
•
Seat belt tensioners (front seat belts)
•
Air bag diagnostic control unit
•
Crash sensors
•
Air bag wiring harnesses
When the vehicle is in System Ready mode
or Drive mode, the air bag control unit
monitors the readiness of the system’s
electrical circuits.
The SRS warning lamp should illuminate in
the DIS for six seconds and then turn OFF,
indicating the system is operational and
ready. If the SRS warning lamp is
illuminated, a fault has been detected and
the air bag system is disabled.
Contact a Karma Service Provider if:
•
The warning indicator fails to illuminate
when the vehicle is first put into
Accessory or Drive mode.
•
The warning indicator fails to extinguish
within approximately six seconds after
the vehicle is put into Accessory or Drive
mode.
•
The warning indicator illuminates while
your Revero is being driven.
