Understanding the Vehicle
Air bag Warning Light
The ORC contains a backup power
supply system that may deploy the
air bags even if the battery has low
power or it becomes disconnected
prior to deployment. When starting
the vehicle, ORC turns on the air bag
warning light
on the instrument
cluster for approximately 4 to 8
seconds for a test.
After the test, the air bag warning
light will turn off. If the ORC,
during the diagnosis phase detects
a malfunction that could affect the
air bag system, it turns on the air
bag warning light and the "Check
Airbag” message either momentarily
or continuously. The diagnostics also
record the nature of the malfunction.
A beep will sound if the light
illuminates again after initial startup.
The air bag warning light monitors the
internal circuits and interconnecting
wiring associated with air bag system
electrical components.
WARNING!
•
The air bags may also be deployed
when the car is not moving, if the
ignition device is in ON position and
the engine is off, if the car is hit
by another moving vehicle. Also
remember that, if the ignition device
is in STOP or off, none of the safety
devices (air bags or pretensioner)
will be deployed in the event of
collision. Non-deployment of these
devices does not indicate a system
malfunction.
•
Ignoring the air bag warning light
and message in your instrument
cluster could mean you won't have
the air bags to protect you in a
collision. If the light does not come
on as a bulb check when the ignition
is first turned on, stays on after you
start the engine, or if it comes on
as you drive, have an Authorized
Maserati Dealer service the air bag
system immediately.
Front Air bag Inflator Units
When the ORC detects a collision
requiring the advanced front air bags,
it signals the inflator units. A large
quantity of nontoxic gas is generated
to inflate the advanced front air bags.
The steering wheel hub trim cover and
the upper right side of the dashboard
separate and fold out of the way as
the air bags inflate to their full size.
The air bags then quickly deflate while
helping to restrain the driver and front
passenger. The advanced front air bag
gas is vented through the vent holes
in the sides of the air bag. In this way,
the air bags do not interfere with your
control of the vehicle.
Supplemental Window Air Bag (WAB)
Inflator Units
The ORC unit determines if a side
collision requires the window air bags
to inflate, based on the severity and
type of collision. Based on the severity
and type of collision, the window air
bag inflator on the crash side of the
vehicle may be triggered, releasing a
quantity of nontoxic gas.
The inflating WAB exits through the
cover along the breaking line seam
into the space between the occupant
and the door. The window air bag
moves at a very high speed and with
such a high force that it could injure
you if you are not seated properly,
or if items are positioned in the area
