The Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) is de-
signed to supplement the front seat belts to help
reduce the risk or severlty of injury to the front seat
occupants by activating and deploying two air bags
during certain frontal collisions.
The SRS consists of: left front and right front impact
sensors (located on the right and left front shield
plate); air bag modules for the driver (located in
the center of the steering wheel) and for the front
seat passenger (located above the glove box). Each
module contains a folded air bag and an inflator
unit. The SRS also contains: an SRS Diagnostic
Unit (SDU) with safing impact sensor (located under
the floor console assembly); and SRS warning light
to indicate the operational status of the SRS (located
on the instrument panel); clock spring (mounted
behind the steering wheel); and wiring.
The SRS is designed so that the air bags will deploy
when the safing sensor, plus either or both of the
left front and right front impact sensors simulta-
neously activate while the ignition switch is in the
ON position. These sensors are designed to acti-
vated in frontal or near-frontal impacts of moderate
to server force.
Only authorized service personnel should work on
or around SRS components. Those personnel
should read this manual carefully before starting
such work. Extreme care must be used when servic-
ing the SRS to avoid injury to service personnel
(by inadvertent deployment of the air bags) or vehicle
occupant (by rendering the SRS inoperative).
