2. Passenger's front air bag module
3. Side air bag modules*
4. Curtain air bag modules*
5. Retractor pre-tensioner assemblies

10. Passenger’s front air bag

11. Passenger’s front air bag

12. EFD (Emergency Fastening

* : if equipped
The SRSCM continually monitors all
elements while the ignition switch is
ON to determine if a frontal, near-
frontal impact or side impact is
severe enough to require air bag
deployment or pre-tensioner seat belt
deployment.
The SRS air bag warning light on the
instrument panel will illuminate for
about 6 seconds after the ignition
switch is turned to the ON position,
after which the air bag warning light
should go out.
