SRS (Supplemental Restraint System)
Introduction
SRS reduces the risk of occupants coming
into contact with the vehicle's interior in the
event of an accident. It can also reduce the
effect of the forces to which occupants are
subjected during an accident.
SRS consists of:
R
6 SRS warning lamp
R
air bags
R
air bag control unit (with crash sensors)
R
Emergency Tensioning Devices
R
seat belt force limiters
SRS warning lamp
G
WARNING
If SRS is malfunctioning, child restraint
system components may be triggered
unintentionally or might not be triggered at all
in the event of an accident with a high rate of
vehicle deceleration. There is an increased
risk of injury, possibly even fatal.
Have SRS checked and repaired immediately
at a qualified specialist workshop.
SRS functions are checked regularly when
you switch on the ignition and when the
engine is running. Therefore, malfunctions
can be detected in good time.
The
6 SRS warning lamp in the instrument
cluster lights up when the ignition is switched
on. It goes out no later than a few seconds
after the engine is started.
The SRS components are in operational
readiness when the 6 SRS indicator lamp
goes out while the engine is running.
There is a malfunction if:
R
the 6 SRS warning lamp does not light
up when the ignition is switched on
R
the engine is running and the 6 SRS
warning lamp does not go out after a few
seconds
R
the engine is running and the 6 SRS
warning lamp lights up again
