Seat, seatbelt and SRS airbags

– CONTINUED –
SRS airbags deploy
as soon as a collision
occurs.
After deployment,
SRS airbags start to
deflate immediately
so that the driver’s
vision is not
obstructed.
OM-H0384
Driver’s side Passenger’s side
The SRS airbag can function only when the ignition switch is in the
“ON” position.
If the front sub sensors inside the both front fenders and the impact
sensors in the airbag control module detect a certain predetermined
amount of force during a frontal collision, the control module sends
signals to the frontal airbag modules instructing them to inflate the
SRS frontal airbags. Then both airbag modules produce gas, which
instantly inflates driver’s and passenger’s SRS frontal airbags. After
the deployment, the SRS airbags immediately start to deflate so that
the driver’s vision is not obstructed. The time required from detecting
impact to the deflation of the SRS airbag after deployment is shorter
than the blink of an eye.
The front passenger’s SRS frontal airbag deploys together with driv-
er’s SRS frontal airbag even when no one occupies the front passen-
ger’s seat.
When the SRS frontal airbags deploy, the driver’s and front passen-
ger’s seatbelt pretensioners operate at the same time.
Although it is highly unlikely that the SRS airbag would activate in a
non-accident situation, should it occur, the SRS airbag will deflate
quickly, not obscuring vision and will not interfere with the driver’s
ability to maintain control of the vehicle.
