RESTRAINT SYSTEMS

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

75-11

Driver Airbag

Cover
Electrical connector
Housing

Securing pins
Etched lines

The driver airbag is integrated into the centre pad of the steering wheel and held in place by two securing pins that 
locate in latches on the steering wheel boss.

The airbag unit has two gas generators installed side by side, with separate electrical connectors attached to the squib 
of each gas generator.

Lines etched into the inner surface of the cover provide weak points that split open in a controlled manner when the 
airbag deploys.
