SUPPLEMENTARY RESTRAINT SYSTEM

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

OPERATION

The airbag supplementary restraint system (SRS) is a
safety device which, when used in conjunction with
the seat belt, is designed to protect the driver and
front passenger by operating when the vehicle
receives a frontal impact (in the area indicated)
exceeding a certain set speed.

In the event of a frontal impact, when the airbag
diagnostic control unit and one of the airbag crash
sensors senses the impact, the diagnostic control unit
fires igniters. This in turn ignites tablets of sodium
azide which generate a large amount of Nitrogen gas
leading to airbag inflation in approximately 30
milli-seconds.

When fully deployed the airbag offers additional
protection to the front seat occupant. As an occupant
moves into the airbag it immediately discharges the
gas to provide progressive occupant deceleration and
reduce risk of injuries. The whole process is
completed in approximately 0.3 seconds.

WARNING: All the airbag system
components, including the wiring harness,
MUST be renewed after the airbags have

deployed.

SRS warning light (airbag)

The warning light in the instrument pack illuminates
after the electrical circuits are switched on whilst a
system check is carried out. After about 8 seconds the
warning light will go out. The system checks airbag
diagnostic control unit, airbag crash sensors, airbag
harness, driver and passenger modules.

In the event of a fault in the system the warning light
will illuminate and begin modulating. The airbag
diagnostic control unit logs the fault which can only be
accessed using TestBook.
