SRS Configuration
The air bag deploys if the air bag diagnosis sensor unit is activated while
the ignition switch is in the ON or
START position.
The collision modes
for which supplemental restraint systems are activated are different among the
SRS systems.
For example, the driver air bag module, front passenger air bag
module and front seat belt pre-tensioners
are activated in a frontal
collision but not in a side collision.
SRS configurations for some collision
modes are as follows:
SRS Component Parts Location
Driver Air Bag Module
The driver air bag module is dual stage and located in the steering
wheel
assembly. It operates with the SRS system in a frontal collision
exceeding a
specified level.
Front Passenger Air Bag Module
The front passenger air bag module is located behind the instrument
panel
assembly. It operates with the SRS system in a frontal collision
exceeding a
specified level. Refer to SRC-10, "Occupant Classification
System (OCS)" for
more information.
Front Side Air Bag
Front side air bag modules are built into the front seatback assemblies.
Vehicles with side air bags are equipped with labels as shown.
Side Curtain Air Bag
Side curtain air bag modules are located above the vehicle headlining.
Vehicles with side curtain air bags are equipped with labels as
shown.
Front Seat Belt Pre-tensioner
The seat belt pre-tensioner system with load limiter is installed for
both
the driver's seat and the front passenger's seat. It operates
simultaneously
with the SRS air bag system in the event of a frontal
collision with an
impact exceeding a specified level.
When the frontal collision with an impact
exceeding a specified level
occurs, seat belt slack resulting from clothing
or other factors is
immediately taken up by the pre-tensioner. Vehicle
passengers are
securely restrained.
When passengers in a vehicle are
thrown forward in a collision and
the restraining force of the seat belt
exceeds a specified level, the
load limiter permits the specified extension
of the seat belt by the
twisting of the ELR shaft, and a relaxation of the
chest-area seat belt
web tension while maintaining force.
SRS Component Connectors
DIRECT CONNECT
The following SRS components use direct-connect style harness connectors.
Always pull up to release locking tab prior to removing connector from SRS
component.
Always push down to lock locking tab after installing connector to
SRS component. When locked, the locking tab is level with the connector
housing.
SLIDE DOUBLE LOCKING
CAUTION:
ICC system operation
The ICC system maintains a selected distance
from the vehicle in front of you within the speed
range 0 to 90 mph (0 to 144km/h) up to the set
speed. The set speed can be selected by the
driver between 20 to 90 mph (32 to 144 km/h),
based on road conditions.
The vehicle travels at the set ...
Checking tire pressure
1. Remove the valve stem cap from the
tire.
2. Press the pressure gauge squarely
onto the valve stem. Do not press too
hard or force the valve stem sideways,
or air will escape. If the hissing
sound of air escaping from the tire is
heard while checking the pressure,
reposition the gaug ...

Precaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and
"SEAT BELTPRE-TENSIONER"
The Supplemental Restraint System such as “AIR BAG” and “SEAT BELT
PRE-TENSIONER”, used alongwith a front seat belt, helps to reduce the risk
or severity of injury to the driver and front passeng ...
