3. DEPLOYMENT CONDITION
When the vehicle collides and the shock is greater than
the specified value, the SRS is activated automatically.
The center airbag sensor assembly includes the safing
sensor and deceleration sensor. The safing sensor was
designed to be turned on at a smaller deceleration rate
than the deceleration sensor.
(a) The center airbag sensor assembly determines
whether or not ignition is necessary based on
signals from the deceleration sensor and the front
airbag sensor (*1). If the safing sensor and
deceleration sensor turn on simultaneously, current
flows to the squibs to deploy the SRS as shown in
the illustration below.
HINT:
*1: In case of a front collision, the ignition signal
could be output with the deceleration sensor ON
signal even without a signal from the front airbag
sensor.

HINT:
*1: If the front seat side airbag assembly deploys,
the curtain shield airbag assembly will also deploy,
regardless of whether the signal is output from the
rear airbag sensor.
(d) The vehicle is equipped with the function to activate
the SRS in case of vehicle rollover. A circuit to
detect vehicle rollover is built into the center airbag
sensor assembly. When the conditions for vehicle
rollover are met, the SRS is activated as shown in
the illustration below.
