SRS Components and Functions
The SRS consists of the following components:
- Driver's Airbag Module
- Passenger's Airbag Module
- SRS Service Reminder Indicator (SRI)
- SRS Control Module (SRSCM)
The SRSCM continually monitors all elements
while the ignition is "ON" to determine if a frontal
or near-frontal impact is severe enough to re-
quire airbag deployment.
The SRS service reminder indicator (SRI) on the
instrument panel will blink for about 6 seconds
after the ignition key is turned to the "ON" position
or after the engine is started, after which the SRI
should go out.
o Do not tamper with or disconnect SRS
wiring, or other components of the SRS
system. Doing so could result in injury,
due to accidental firing of the airbags or
by rendering the SRS inoperative.
o Do not install a child restraint system in the
front passenger seat position. A child
restraint system must never be placed in
the front seat. The infant or child could be
severely injured or killed by an airbag
deployment in case of an accident.
o Do not allow children to ride in the front
passenger seat. If older children (teenag-
ers and older) must ride in the front seat,
make sure they are always properly belted
and that the seat is moved back as far as
possible.
o For maximum safety protection in all types
of crashes, all occupants including the
driver should always wear their seat belts
whether or not an airbag is also provided
at their seating position to minimize the
risk of severe injury or death in the event
of a crash. Do not sit or lean unnecessarily
close to the airbag while the vehicle is in
motion.
o The SRS airbag system must deploy very
rapidly to provide protection in a crash. If
an occupant is out of position because of
not wearing a seat belt, the airbag may
forcefully contact the occupant causing
serious or fatal injuries.

The airbag modules are located both in the
center of the steering wheel and in the front
passenger's panel above the glove box. When
the SRSCM detects a considerable impact to the
front of the vehicle, it will automatically deploy the
airbags.
CAUTION:
Do not install or place any accessories (drink
holder, cassette holder, sticker, etc) on the
front passenger's panel above the glove box
in a vehicle with a passenger's air bag. Such
objects may become dangerous projectiles
and cause injury if the passenger's air bag
inflates.
B240B02L
Upon deployment, tear seams molded directly
into the pad covers will separate under pressure
from the expansion of the airbags. Further open-
ing of the covers then allows full inflation of the
airbags.
