Load limiter
Above a certain severity of impact, this
mechanism is used to limit the force of
the belt against the body so that it is at
an acceptable level.
Anti-submarining air bag
Located on each of the front seats, it
deploys in order to prevent the occu -
pant from sliding under the seat belt.
Air bags for driver and front
passenger
Fitted to the driver and passenger side.
Depending on the vehicle, the pres -
ence of this equipment is indicated
by the word “Airbag” on the steering
wheel, dashboard (air bag zone A) and
a symbol on the lower section of the
windscreen.
Each air bag system consists of:
– an air bag and gas generator fitted
on the steering wheel for the driver
and in the dashboard for the front
passenger;
– an electronic unit for system monitor-
ing which controls the gas generator
electrical trigger system;
– remote sensors;
– a single warning light
å on the
instrument panel.
A
The air bag system uses
pyrotechnic principles. This
explains why, when the air
bag inflates, it will gener -
ate heat, produce smoke (this does
not mean that a fire is about to start)
and make a noise upon detonation.
In a situation where an air bag is
required, it will inflate immediately
and this may cause some minor, su-
perficial grazing to the skin or other
problems.
