File:fcsrs.ex Update:Wed Dec 20 09:34:02 1995 % How the Air Bag Supplemental Restraint System Operates [SR16600(ALL)05/95] The Air Bag Supplemental Restraint System consists of the Driver and Passenger air bags, impact sensors, a system diagnostic module, a readiness light and tone, and the electrical wiring which connects the components. *[SR16750(ALL)04/95] The driver air bag is in the center of the steering wheel.

Because the system senses the crash severity rather than vehicle speed, some frontal collisions at speeds above 28 mph (45 km/h) will not inflate the air bag. [SR17500(ALL)05/95] *[SR17580(ALL)01/95] When the sensors activate the system, the air bags inflate rapidly, filling with non-toxic gas mixture in a fraction of a second.
File:fcsrs.ex Update:Wed Dec 20 09:34:02 1995 *[SR17730(ALL)05/94] half page art:0011064-A Inflated passenger-side air bag *[SR18400(ALL)01/95] RWARNING The air bag will inflate only once. The system is designed to function on a one-time-only basis. If the air bag is inflated, THE AIR BAG WILL NOT FUNCTION AGAIN AND MUST BE REPLACED IMMEDIATELY. If the air bag is not replaced, the unrepaired area will increase the risk of injury in a collision.
File:fcsrs.ex Update:Wed Dec 20 09:34:02 1995 % The air bag system uses a readiness light on the instrument cluster and a tone to indicate the condition of the system. When you turn the ignition key to the ON position, this light will illuminate for approximately six (6) seconds and then turn off. This indicates that the system is operating normally. NOTE: Maintenance of the air bag system is not required.
