Airbag System Components
The airbag system consists of the following:
•Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC)
•Airbag Warning Light
•Driver Airbag
•Front Passenger Airbag
•Side Curtain Airbags above Side Windows
•Side Remote Acceleration Sensors
•Steering Wheel and Column
•Instrument Panel
•Interconnecting Wiring
•Front Acceleration Sensors
•Front Passenger Seat Belt Pretensioner and Retractor
— If Equipped
•Occupant Classification System (OCS) — Front Pas-
senger Seat Only

How the Airbag System Works
•
TheOccupant Restraint Controller (ORC) determines
if a frontal, side, or rollover collision is severe enough
to require the airbags to inflate. The front airbag
inflators are designed to provide different rates of
airbag inflation from direction provided by the ORC.
The ORC may also modify the rate of inflation based
on the occupant size. The ORC receives this data from
the Occupant Classification Module (OCM). The ORC
will detect rollovers, but not rear impacts.
58 THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE

•Use of Rain-Xor products containing wax or silicone
may reduce rain sensor performance.
•The rain-sensing feature can be turned on and off
through the Electronic Vehicle Information Center
(EVIC) — if equipped. For details, refer to “Personal
Settings (Customer-Programmable Features)” under
“Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)” in
Section 4 of this manual.
The rain-sensing system has protective features for the
wiper blades and arms. It will not operate under the
following conditions:
•Low Temperature Wipe Inhibit — The rain-sensing
feature will not operate when the ignition is first
switched ON, the vehicle is stationary, and the outside
temperature is below 32° F (0° C). If the wiper control
is moved, the vehicle speed becomes greater than 0 mph (0 km/h), or the outside temperature rises
above freezing the rain-sensing feature will then op-
erate.
•Neutral Wipe Inhibit
— The rain-sensing feature will
not operate when the ignition is ON, and the shift
lever is in the NEUTRAL position, and the vehicle
speed is less than 5 mph (8 km/h), unless the wiper
control is moved or the shift lever is moved out of the
NEUTRAL position.
•Remote Start Wipe Inhibit (Vehicles Equipped with
Remote Start System) — The rain-sensing feature will
not operate when the vehicle is in remote start mode.
This feature will return to normal operation once
remote start mode is exited. Refer to “Remote Start
System” in Section 2 of this manual for information on
remote start operation.

Use this control to regulate the amount
of air forced through the ventilation
system in any mode. The blower speed
increases as you move the control to
the right from the “O” (Off) position.
There are four blower speeds.

climate controls will not function during Remote Start
operation if the blower control is left in the “O” (Off)
position.
Temperature Control
Use this control to regulate the tem-
perature of the air inside the passenger
compartment. The blue area of the
scale indicates cooler temperatures
while the red area indicates warmer
