or their wiring, as well as tampering with
interconnected electronic systems, can lead
to the restraint system sno longer functioning

(ETDs), for example, could deploy
inadvertently or fail to deploy in accidents
although the deceleration threshold for air
bag deployment is exceeded. Therefore,
never modify the restraint systems. Do not

software.
In this section, you will learn the most
important facts about the restraint system
components of the vehicle.
