Supplemental Restraint System (SRS)

This vehicle has a single point sensing system. The diagnostic monitor, crash sensors and safing sensor are incorporated into an electronic air bag control module mounted centrally in the vehicle. The air bag control module retains full control of the complete air bag system.

The Supplementary Restraint System (SRS) has been specifically designed to protect the driver and passenger from sustaining severe facial and upper body injuries in the event of a serious impact. Optimum protection can only be ensured when used in conjunction with a conventional three point safety belt. The safety belts form an integral part of the Supplementary Restraint System.

The visible VIN plate shows the air bag symbol and either X1 or X2 depending on the number of air bags fitted, is attached to the windshield edge of the instrument panel.






WARNING: All vehicles equipped with the passenger air bag from the factory have a warning sticker attached to the instrument panel, prohibiting the use of rear facing child or baby seats.

It is not possible under any circumstances to disable the passenger air bag while maintaining the integrity of the whole system.

The system consists of:
- Air bag control module
- Wiring harness
- Air bag sliding contact
- Air bag indicator
- Safing sensor
- Air bag module(s)

NOTE: The sections of wiring harness which carry air bag wiring are marked by yellow insulation to aid identification of the air bag wiring harness routing.
