GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The SUPRA is equipped with an SRS (Supplemental Restraint System), which comprises a driver
airbag, and front passenger airbag if fitted. Failure to carry out service operations in the correct
sequence could cause the SRS to unexpectedly deploy during servicing, possibly leading to a seri-
ous accident. Further, if a mistake is made in servicing the SRS, it is possible the SRS may fail to
operate when required. Before performing servicing (including removal or installation of parts, in-
spection or replacement), be sure to read the following items carefully, then follow the correct pro-
cedure described in the repair manual.
1. Malfunction symptoms of the SRS are difficult to confirm, so the diagnostic trouble codes become the most
important source of information when troubleshooting. When troubleshooting the SRS, always inspect the
diagnostic trouble codes before disconnecting the battery.
(See page RS±44)
2. Work must be started after 90 seconds from the time the ignition switch is turned to the ºLOCKº
position and the negative (±) terminal cable is disconnected from the battery.
(The SRS is equipped with a back±up power source so that if work is started within 90 seconds of
disconnecting the negative (±) terminal cable from the battery, the SRS may deploy.)
When the negative (±) terminal cable is disconnected from the battery, memory of the clock and audio sys-
tems will be canceled. So before starting work, make a record of the contents memorized by the audio
memory system. When work is finished, reset the audio systems as before and adjust the clock. To avoid
erasing the memory of each memory system, never use a back±up power supply from outside the vehicle.
3. Even in cases of a minor collision where the SRS does not deploy, the steering wheel pad, front passenger
airbag assembly, front airbag sensors and center airbag sensor assembly should be inspected.
(See pages RS±10, 20, 30, and 33)
4. Never use SRS parts from another vehicle. When replacing parts, replace them with new parts.
5. Before repairs, remove the airbag sensors if shocks are likely to be applied to the sensors during repairs.
6. Never disassemble and repair the steering wheel pad, front passenger airbag assembly, front airbag
sensors or center airbag sensor assembly in order to reuse it.
7. If the steering wheel pad, front passenger airbag assembly, front airbag sensors or center airbag sensor
assembly have been dropped, or if there are cracks, dents or other defects in the case, bracket or
connector, replace them with new ones.
8. Do not expose the steering wheel pad, front passenger airbag assembly, front airbag sensors or center
airbag sensor assembly directly to hot air or flames.
9. Use a volt/ohmmeter with high impedance (10 k/V minimum) for troubleshooting the system's electrical
circuits.
10. Information labels are attached to the periphery of the SRS components. Follow the instructions on the
notices.
11. After work on the SRS is completed, check the SRS warning light.
(See page RS±44)
12. If the vehicle is equipped with a mobile communication system, refer to the precaution in the IN section. RS±2

DESCRIPTION
This vehicle is equipped with an SRS (Supplemental Re-
straint System) which comprises a driver airbag, and front
passenger airbag if fitted. Where fitted, it is designed to be of
benefit only in conjunction with the front seat belt(s) being
worn. In a collision, if the shock is greater than a specified val-
ue, the airbag(s) stored in the steering wheel pad and front
passenger airbag assembly are inflated instantaneously.

OPERATION
FUNCTION OF COMPONENTS
1. STEERING WHEEL PAD (with AIRBAG)
The inflater and bag of the SRS are stored in the steering
wheel pad and cannot be disassembled. The inflater con-
tains a squib, igniter charge, gas generant, etc., and inflates
the bag when instructed by the center airbag sensor assem-
bly.
2. SPIRAL CABLE (in COMBINATION SWITCH)
A spiral cable is used as an electrical joint from the vehicle
body side to the steering wheel.
3. FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG ASSEMBLY
The inflater and bag of the SRS are stored in the front pas-
senger airbag assembly and cannot be disassembled.
The inflater contains a squib, igniter charge, gas generant,
etc., and inflates the bag when instructed by the center airbag
sensor assembly.
4. SRS WARNING LIGHT
The SRS warning light is located on the cluster finish panel.
It goes on to alert the driver of trouble in the system when a
malfunction is detected in the center airbag sensor assembly.
In normal operating conditions when the ignition switch is
turned to the ACC or ON position, the light goes on for about
6 seconds and then goes off.
5. FRONT AIRBAG SENSOR
A front airbag sensor is mounted inside each of the front fend-
ers. The sensor unit is a mechanical type. When the sensor
detects a deceleration force above a predetermined limit,
contacts is made in the sensor, sending a signal to the center
airbag sensor assembly. The sensor cannot be disas-
sembled. RS±4

6. CENTER AIRBAG SENSOR ASSEMBLY
The center airbag sensor assembly is mounted on the floor
inside the console box. The center airbag sensor assembly
consists of a center airbag sensor, safing sensor, diagnosis
circuit and ignition control, drive circuit, etc. It receives signals
from the airbag sensors and judges whether the SRS must
be activated or not.
