uuAirbagsuAirbag System Components
The front, driver's and passenger's knee,
front side, and side curtain airbags are
deployed according to the direction and
severity of impact. Both side curtain airbags
are deployed in a rollover. The airbag
system includes:
Two SRS (Supplemental Restraint System)
a
front airbags. The driver's airbag is stored
in the center of the steering wheel; the
front passenger's airbag is stored in the
dashboard. Both are marked SRS
AIRBAG.
Two front knee airbags. The driver's knee
b
airbag is stored under the steering
column. The front passenger's knee
airbag is stored under the glove box.
Both are marked SRS AIRBAG.
Two side airbags, one for the driver and
c
one for a front passenger. The airbags are
stored in the outer edges of the seat-
backs. Both are marked SIDE AIRBAG.
Two side curtain airbags, one for each

An electronic control unit that, when the
e
vehicle is on, continually monitors
information about the various impact
sensors, seat and buckle sensors, rollover
sensor, airbag activators, seat belt
tensioners, and other vehicle
information. During a crash event the
unit can record such information.
Automatic front seat belt tensioners. In
f
addition, the driver's and front
passenger's seat belt buckles incorporate
sensors that detect whether or not they
are fastened.
A driver's seat position sensor. This
g
sensor determines the optimal force at
which the airbag will deploy in a crash.
Weight sensors in the front passenger's
h
seat. The front passenger's airbag will be
turned off if the weight on the seat is
approximately 65 lbs (29 kg) or less (the
weight of an infant or small child).
Impact sensors that can detect a
i
moderate-to-severe front or side impact.
An indicator on the dashboard that alerts
j
you that the front passenger's front
airbag has been turned off.
An indicator on the instrument panel that
k
alerts you to a possible problem with your
airbag system or seat belt tensioners.
Safing Sensor
l
A rollover sensor that can detect if your
m
vehicle is about to roll over and signal the
control unit to deploy both side curtain
airbags.
