Control and Processing
Restraints Control Module
Int ernall y, the Res traint s Cont rol Module (RCM) has t wo areas t hat det ermi ne which el ement s of t he res traint s yst em aret o be deployed:
Area 1 - Cras h s everit y evaluati on:
The fi rs t area eval uat es cras h s everit y by us ing data from t he module's internal accel eromet er, t he front cras h sens or andt he safety-bel t buckle sens or. Bas ed on thi s data, t he RCM decides which l evel of air bag deployment is requi red andforwards t he informat ion t o t he s econd area, t he deployment handler.
Area 2 - Deployment handler:
The s tat us of the s eat posi ti on s ens or, occupant clas si fi cat ion s ens ing s yst em and safet y-belt buckle s ens ors areexamined before a decis ion i s made about which res t raint s s houl d finally be depl oyed. For ins tance, i f the occupantclas si fi cat ion s ens ing s yst em indicates t hat the pas senger s eat i s empty, t hen no res t raint deployment wil l take place ont he pas s enger s ide, even if full depl oyment t akes pl ace for t he dri ver.

An energy reserve in the RCM ens ures there is al ways a mini mum of 150 mill is econds of s tored energy avai lable if t hepower supply from t he ignit ion s wi tch i s dis rupt ed during a cras h. The st ored energy i s s ufficient t o produce fi ri ng si gnal sfor t he dri ver ai r bag, t he pass enger ai r bag and the s afet y belt pret ensi oners .
W hen t he i gni ti on is s wi tched on t he RCM performs cycli cal monit ori ng of the sys tem. If a fault is det ect ed t he RCM s t oresa related fault code and s ends t he s ignal to il luminat e t he air bag warni ng indicator. The fault s can be retrieved by theLand Rover approved diagnos t ic s ys tem. If a faul t that coul d cause a fal se fi re si gnal i s det ected, the RCM dis ables t heres pect ive firing ci rcuit , and keeps it di s abl ed during a cras h event .
Air Bags
Hybrid Inflator Technology
All air bags feat ure hybrid i nflat ors , rat her than t he previous ly us ed s olid pyrotechni c gas generators which us e anexpl osi on t o generate t he air bag charge di rectl y. Hybrid i nflat ors us e a sel f-cont ained pyrotechnic device t o heat a cyl inderof compress ed i nert gas wit hin the i nfl at or. Above a cali brated press ure, t his cyli nder burs t s and t he gas is released intot he fabri c bag.
The benefit s of hybrid infl ators are cooler gas, hence lower bag s urface t emperat ures , and the el imi nat ion ofpost -deployment effluent ass ociat ed wit h s oli d pyrotechnic generators.
Dual Stage Inflators
Both the driver air bag and pass enger ai r bag feature dual-st age inflat ors . Each ai r bag empl oys two separat e i nflat ors ,fi tt ed wi th independent squibs connect ed t o the ai r bag. This allows ai r bag s ize, press ure and rat e of ri s e in pres sure t obe opti mized t o s uit t he vehicle's s t ructural characteris ti cs as well as t he s everity of the act ual i mpact .

Heat-treatment of panels
It is us ually inevi tabl e that s ome parts of t he body panels show exces s material as a resul t of mechanical st rai n. Ift here are any areas of exces s material t hi s wi ll caus e l ocali s ed ins tabil it ies due to di fferences i n t ens ion.

Rule: Flat tening panels by heat -t reat ment reduces t he amount of excess material by more than t hey were origi nal lys tretched.
Different heat -t reatment t echni ques .
• NOTE: Different heat -t reat ment techni ques are us ed depending on the amount of exces s mat erial .
Flat tening us ing a fl ame.- A wel ding t orch i s used if t he material exces s extends over a larger area (t orch size 0.5 - 1.0 mm). Us e a s oftfl ame.- The s urface of t he met al i s bri efl y s pot -heat ed and then i mmediat ely cooled wi th a wet s ponge.- Requi rement : Abili ty to handle a weldi ng torch safely and knowledge of anneali ng col ours of s teel .- Advant age: No damage to the s urface of the met al.Flat tening us ing a fl ame, support ed by hammer and count erhold.-• NOTE: The flatt ening effect is i ncreas ed by s peedi ng up t he heat ing and cooli ng s tages .
If the mat eri al excess is concentrated, t hen the flat tening effect can be increas ed aft er heat ing by carefullyus ing an al uminium or wooden hammer.- Requi rement : Abili ty to recognis e material tens ion by feeling the s urface that is to be fl att ened.Flat tening us ing a carbon electrode.- If panel areas are onl y acces s ible from one s ide, or the panel is onl y s light ly des tabil is ed, then t he preferredmet hod is flat tening us ing a carbon electrode.- Requi rement : Bare met al s urface.- Dis advant age: Scarring and hardening of t he s urface.Flat tening us ing a copper electrode.- Small , s harp dents t hat face outwards can be worked on wi th a copper electrode.Flat tening us ing a fl ame and body fi les .-• NOTE: W hen appli ed correct ly, thi s method can be us ed wi th al l the at t ached part s s ti ll i n place (roofheadl ining, wi ring harnes s es etc.).
Small , soft dent s (onl y s li ght s t ret chi ng): W orki ng at t he edges of t he dent i n an inward s piral pat tern, the dentis heat ed wit h an oxyacet yl ene torch (t orch s ize 1 - 2 mm, exces s gas fl ame) to approx. 250° C.- W orking rapi dly wi th a body fi le ext racts heat from the edge area unt il t he dent is flat tened.

Before wax inject ion, ensure t hat t he cavi ty to be treat ed i s free from any contaminati on or forei gn mat ter. W hereneces s ary, cl ear out any debri s.
Ensure t hat cavit y wax is appl ied after t he fi nal paint proces s and before refit ti ng any trim components .
Duri ng appl icati on ensure t hat t he wax covers all flanges and seam areas and t hat i t is adequately appl ied t o all repai redareas of both new and exi s ti ng panel s.
