Driver's front air bag (1)
OHM039102N
The front air bag modules are locat-
ed in the center of the steering
wheel, in the front passenger's panel
above the glove box and/or in the dri-
ver's side knee bolster. When the
SRSCM detects a sufficiently severe
impact to the front of the vehicle, it
will automatically deploy the front air
bags.
Driver's front air bag (2)
OHM039103N
Upon deployment, tear seams mold-
ed directly into the pad covers will
separate under pressure from the
expansion of the air bags. Further
opening of the covers then allows full
inflation of the air bags.
