SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT
SYSTEM (SRS)
The Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) consists of
Airbags and Seat Belt Pretensioners. The combination of
these two systems provides further protection to the
driver and front passenger in a severe collision.
Airbags:
In response to a severe frontal impact, the airbags inflate
and reduce the likelihood of the driver and passenger’s
heads from directly hitting the steering wheel and
instrument panel.
Seat belt pretensioners:
In response to a severe frontal impact, the seat belts are
quickly drawn back in by the retractors so that the belts
snugly restrain the driver and front passenger.The passenger airbag is activated together with the driver
airbag, even with no passenger in the front seat.
The seat belt pretensioners are activated together with the
airbags, even with no passenger in the front seat.
This indicator comes on when the ignition key is turned to
the “ACC” or “ON” position. It goes off after about 6
seconds. This means the SRS is operating properly.
The SRS warning light system monitors the front airbag
sensors, center airbag sensor assembly, inflators, seat belt
pretensioners, warning light, interconnecting wiring and power
sources.
