The system consists of the
following:
• A fabric tag or embossed letters
in the plastic trim on the seat
with the word AIRBAG.
• Side airbags located inside the
seatback of the driver and front
passenger seats.
• Crash sensors and monitoring system with readiness
indicator. See Crash Sensors and Airbag Indicator later in
this chapter.
• Front passenger sensing system.
Note: The passenger sensing system will deactivate the passenger
seat-mounted side airbag if it detects an empty passenger seat.
The design and development of the side airbag system included
recommended testing procedures that were developed by a group of
automotive safety experts known as the Side Airbag Technical Working
Group. These recommended testing procedures help reduce the risk of
injuries related to the deployment of side airbags.
