PASSENGER'S AIR BAG MODULE
P4A09SL01
The passenger's Air Bag is enclosed in a container which is secured to a metal frame. The components
and principle of operation are the same as for the driver's Air Bag.
The cushion is made of silicone-coated nylon, and when fully inflated its internal volume is about 90
litres. It is folded in a special casing installed above the glove compartment in the dashboard.
At the centre of the casing there are pre-determined fracture lines which allow the centre of the casing to
break and the cushion to emerge.
Since the cover is made of plastic, under no circumstances should it be cleaned with acids, abrasives or
substances which could in any way attack the surface and impair its functionality.
The gas generator is of the pyrotechnic type and is a solid aluminium cylindrical element.
