Description:




The air bag deploys if the diagnosis sensor unit activates while the ignition switch is in "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 and passenger air bag module are activated in a frontal collision but not in a side collision.
