Supplemental Restraint
System (SRS)
In addition to the three-point seat
belts, this vehicle may be equipped
with a Supplemental Restraint
System (SRS) as a factory installed
option. If the letters “SRS” are
stamped into the steering wheel hub
pad, the vehicle is equipped with an
airbag (1), a knee bolster for the
driver, and an emergency tensioning
24
retractor (2) for the front passenger.
The airbag is located in the steering
wheel hub (stamped SRS). The
tensioning unit is attached to the
retractor of the front passenger’s
three-point seat belt.
When used in conjunction with the
three-point seat belts, the airbag
and emergency tensioning retractor
provide improved front occupant
protection.
• The “SRS” is designed in such a
way that it can only provide its
supplemental protective function
in case of a severe frontal impact.
Its additional protective function
will only be effective in accidents
of this type. It is always neces­
sary for the driver and front
passenger to have their seat
belts fastened, otherwise, the
airbag cannot provide the intend­
ed supplemental protection for
the driver, and the front passen­
ger will have no protection what­
soever.
