4) Internal monitoring
The air bag unit checks the status of the air bag system and monitors the system for internal errors. If
an error is detected by self diagnosis, this unit disables part of the air bag system functions and outputs
a diagnostic trouble code (DTC) and air bag warning lamp signal.

Internal acceleration sensor test
The air bag unit checks internal acceleration sensor when the ignition is turned on. The air bag unit

Non-volatile memory (NVM) test
The air bag unit checks the values stored in the memory. If the values are not correct, the air bag unit
sets a diagnostic trouble code (DTC) and turns on the air bag warning lamp.
