The SRS airbag system mainly consists of
the following components and their loca-
tions are shown in the illustration.
1. SRS airbag warning light
2. Airbag module for driver (airbag and
inflator)
3. Airbag sensor assembly
The airbag sensor assembly consists of a
safing sensor and airbag sensor.
In a severe frontal impact, the sensor de-
tects deceleration and the system triggers
the airbag inflator. Then a chemical reac-
tion in the inflator momentarily fills the
airbag with non- toxic gas to help restrain
the forward motion of the driver.
When the airbag inflates, it produces a
fairly loud noise and releases some
smoke along with non- toxic gas. This
does not indicate a fire. Be sure to wash
off any residue as soon as possible to
prevent minor skin irritation.
Deployment of the airbag happens in a
fraction of a second, so the airbag must
inflate with considerable force. While the
system is designed to reduce serious inju-
ries, it may also cause minor burns or
abrasions and swellings.
The steering wheel hub may be hot for
several minutes, but the airbag itself will
not be hot. The airbag is designed to
inflate only once.
CAUTION
The SRS airbag system is designed
only as a supplement to the primary
protection of the driver side seat belt
system. The driver can be killed or
seriously injured by an inflating air-
bag if they do not wear the available
seat belts. During sudden braking just
before a collision, an unrestrained
driver can move forward into direct
contact with or close proximity to the
airbag which may then deploy during
the collision. To obtain maximum
protection in an accident, the driver
and all passengers in the vehicle
must wear their seat belts. Wearing a
seat belt during an accident reduces
the chances of death or serious inju-
ries or being thrown out of the ve-
hicle. For instructions and precau-
tions concerning the seat belt system,
see ”Seat belts” in this chapter.
