AIRBAG SYSTEM SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
GENERAL
Deceleration sensors used for the airbag system are installed on various parts on the vehicle and calculate the deceleration rate of each part during a collision.
Depending on the situation, the airbag sensor assembly sends a deployment signal to each airbag and pretensioner based on the information from each sensor.
DEPLOYMENT CONDITION
FRONTAL COLLISION
Frontal collision signals are produced based on the information from the airbag sensor assembly and front airbag sensors.
Tip:In case of a frontal collision, the SRS ignition signal may be output after receiving an ON signal from the deceleration sensor built into the airbag sensor assembly even without a signal from the front airbag sensors.
Frontal collision signals are used to deploy the airbags and pretensioners in the illustration.
SIDE COLLISION (w/o Curtain Shield Airbags)
Side collision signals are produced based on the information from the airbag sensor assembly and side airbag sensor assembly.
Side collision signals are used to deploy the airbag and pretensioner in the illustration.
SIDE COLLISION (w/ Curtain Shield Airbags)
Side collision (Pattern 1) signals are produced based on the information from the airbag sensor assembly and side airbag sensor assembly.
Side collision (Pattern 2) signals are produced based on the information from the airbag sensor assembly and rear airbag sensor.
Side collision signals are used to deploy the airbags and pretensioner in the illustration.
