Supplemental Restraint
Systems (SRS)
Some of the safety features described
in this section may be standard
equipment on some models, or may be
optional equipment on others. If you are
not sure, ask your authorized dealer.
The air bag system must be ready to
protect you in a collision. The Occupant
Restraint Controller (ORC) monitors the
internal circuits and interconnecting
wiring associated with the electrical Air
Bag System Components. Your vehicle
may be equipped with the following Air
Bag System Components:
Air Bag System Components
Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC)
Air Bag Warning Light
Steering Wheel and Column
Instrument Panel
Knee Impact Bolsters
Driver and Front Passenger Air Bags
Supplemental Side Air Bags
Supplemental Knee Air Bags
Front and Side Impact Sensors
Seat Belt Pretensioners
Seat Track Position Sensors
Seat Belt Buckle Switch
Air Bag Warning Light
The ORC monitors the readiness of the
electronic parts of the air bag system
whenever the ignition switch is in the
START or ON/RUN position. If the
ignition switch is in the OFF position or
in the ACC position, the air bag system
is not on and the air bags will not
inflate.
The ORC contains a backup power
supply system that may deploy the air
bag system even if the battery loses
power or it becomes disconnected
prior to deployment.
The ORC turns on the Air Bag Warning
Light in the instrument panel for
approximately four to eight seconds for
a self-check when the ignition switch is
first in the ON/RUN position. After the
self-check, the Air Bag Warning Light
will turn off. If the ORC detects a
malfunction in any part of the system, it
turns on the Air Bag Warning Light,
either momentarily or continuously. A
single chime will sound to alert you if
the light comes on again after initial
startup.
The ORC also includes diagnostics that
will illuminate the instrument panel Air
Bag Warning Light if a malfunction is
detected that could affect the air bag
system. The diagnostics also record the
nature of the malfunction. While the air
bag system is designed to be
maintenance free, if any of the followingoccurs, have an authorized dealer
service the air bag system immediately.The Air Bag Warning Light does not
come on during the four to eight
seconds when the ignition switch is first
in the ON/RUN position.
The Air Bag Warning Light remains
on after the four to eight-second
interval.
The Air Bag Warning Light comes on
intermittently or remains on while
driving.
Note:
If the speedometer, tachometer, or any
engine related gauges are not working,
the Occupant Restraint Controller
(ORC) may also be disabled. In this
condition the air bags may not be ready
to inflate for your protection. Have an
authorized dealer service the air bag
system immediately.
Warning!
Ignoring the Air Bag Warning Light in your
instrument panel could mean you won’t
have the air bag system to protect you in a
collision. If the light does not come on as a
bulb check when the ignition is first turned
on, stays on after you start the vehicle, or if
it comes on as you drive, have an
authorized dealer service the air bag
system immediately.

Relying on the Side Air Bags alone could
lead to more severe injuries in a collision.
The Side Air Bags work with your seat belt
to restrain you properly. In some collisions,
Side Air Bags won’t deploy at all. Always
wear your seat belt even though you have
Side Air Bags.
Note:
Air bag covers may not be obvious in
the interior trim, but they will open
during air bag deployment.
Side Impacts
In side impacts, the side impact
sensors aid the ORC in determining the
appropriate response to impact events.
The system is calibrated to deploy the
Side Air Bags on the impact side of the
vehicle during impacts that require Side
Air Bag occupant protection. In side
impacts, the Side Air Bags deploy
independently; a left side impact
deploys the left Side Air Bags only and
a right side impact deploys the right
Side Air Bags only.
The Side Air Bags will not deploy in all
side collisions, including some collisions
at certain angles, or some side
collisions that do not impact the area of
the passenger compartment. The Side
Air Bags may deploy during angled or
offset frontal collisions where the front
air bags deploy. Rollover Events
Side Air Bags are designed to activate
in certain rollover events. The ORC
determines whether the deployment of
the Side Air Bags in a particular rollover
event is appropriate, based on the
severity and type of collision. Vehicle
damage by itself is not a good indicator
of whether or not Side Air Bags should
have deployed.
The Side Air Bags will not deploy in all
rollover events. The rollover sensing
system determines if a rollover event
may be in progress and whether
deployment is appropriate. In the event
the vehicle experiences a rollover or
near rollover event, and deployment of
the Side Air Bags is appropriate, the
rollover sensing system will also deploy
the seat belt pretensioners on both
sides of the vehicle.
The SABICs may help reduce the risk of
partial or complete ejection of vehicle
occupants through side windows in
certain rollover or side impact events.
The Occupant Restraint Controller
(ORC) monitors the internal circuits and
interconnecting wiring associated with
electrical Air Bag System Components
listed below:

Seat Belt Pretensioners
Seat Track Position Sensors
Seat Belt Buckle Switch
If A Deployment Occurs
The front air bags are designed to
deflate immediately after deployment.
Note:
Front and/or side air bags will not
deploy in all collisions. This does not
mean something is wrong with the air
bag system.
If you do have a collision which deploys
the air bags, any or all of the following
may occur:
The air bag material may sometimes
cause abrasions and/or skin reddening
to the occupants as the air bags deploy
and unfold. The abrasions are similar to
friction rope burns or those you might
get sliding along a carpet or gymnasium
floor. They are not caused by contact
with chemicals. They are not permanent
and normally heal quickly. However, if

Maintaining Your Air Bag
System
Warning!
Modifications to any part of the air bag
system could cause it to fail when you
need it. You could be injured if the air bag
system is not there to protect you. Do not
modify the components or wiring, including
adding any kind of badges or stickers to
the steering wheel hub trim cover or the
upper right side of the instrument panel.
Do not modify the front bumper, vehicle
body structure, or add aftermarket side
steps or running boards.
It is dangerous to try to repair any part
of the air bag system yourself. Be sure to
tell anyone who works on your vehicle that
it has an air bag system.
Do not attempt to modify any part of
your air bag system. The air bag may inflate
accidentally or may not function properly if
modifications are made. Take your vehicle
to an authorized dealer for any air bag
system service. If your seat, including your
trim cover and cushion, needs to be
serviced in any way (including removal or
loosening/tightening of seat attachment
bolts), take the vehicle to your authorized
dealer. Only manufacturer approved seat
accessories may be used. If it is necessary
to modify the air bag system for persons
with disabilities, contact your authorized
dealer.

SAFETY

INSTALLATION OF RADIO TRANSMITTING
EQUIPMENT
Special design considerations are incorporated into this
vehicle’s electronic system to provide immunity to radio
frequency signals. Mobile two-way radios and telephone
equipment must be installed properly by trained person-
nel. The following must be observed during installation.
The positive power connection should be made directly
to the battery and fused as close to the battery as possible.
The negative power connection should be made to body
sheet metal adjacent to the negative battery connection.
This connection should not be fused.
Antennas for two-way radios should be mounted on the
roof or the rear area of the vehicle. Care should be used
in mounting antennas with magnet bases. Magnets may
affect the accuracy or operation of the compass on
vehicles so equipped.The antenna cable should be as short as practical and
routed away from the vehicle wiring when possible. Use
only fully shielded coaxial cable.
Carefully match the antenna and cable to the radio to
ensure a low Standing Wave Ratio (SWR).
Mobile radio equipment with output power greater than
normal may require special precautions.
All installations should be checked for possible interfer-
ence between the communications equipment and the
vehicle’s electronic systems.
