SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) AND SEAT BELT WITH
PRE-TENSIONER
00100590103
To improve safety, the SRS and seat belt with
pre-tensioner are available as optional parts. These
systems enhance a collision safety by restraining
the front passengers in case of an accident. The
SRS works with the pre-tensioner simultaneously
when a collision is detected.
SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)
The SRS is designed to supplement the front seat
belts. It eliminates or reduces an injury to the front
passengers by deploying two air bags in case of
a head-on collision.
SEAT BELT WITH PRE-TENSIONER
The seat belt with pre-tensioner work simultaneously
with the SRS. The pre-tensioner takes up seat belt
slack immediately at a collision, by that restraining
the front passengers sooner than the SRS. This
prevents the passengers from moving forwards.
CAUTION
1. Even if there is no passenger, the air bag and
pre-tensioner will work by detecting a bigger
head-on collision than a specific value.
2. The specific value is an equivalent impact when
a vehicle collides against a concrete (fixed) wall
at approx. 25 km/h or more.
3. The SRS and pre-tensioner may not work under
the following conditions:
A head-on collision is smaller than the
specific value.
A vehicle collides on its side or rear end.
A vehicle rolls over or upsets.
