Safety features of your vehicle

The SRS consists of air bags

installed under the pad covers in the

center of the steering wheel and the

passenger's side front panel above

the glove box.

The purpose of the SRS is to provide

the vehicle's driver and/or the front

passenger with additional protection

than that offered by the seat belt sys-

tem alone in case of a frontal impact

of sufficient severity. The SRS uses

sensors to gather information about

the driver's and front passenger's

seat belt usage and impact severity.

The seat belt buckle sensors deter-

mine if the driver and front passen-

ger's seat belts are fastened.
