This
means
that
when
you
pull
the
seat

retracted,
tug
on
it.
If
the

is in
the
ALR
function,
you
will
not
be
able
to
pull

can
be
pulled
out
from

Event Data Recording

Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) - airbag4-24

The
EDR
is designed
to record
data
related
to
vehicle
dynamics
and
safety
systems
for
a
short
period
of
time,
typically
30
seconds
or
less.The
EDR
in this
vehicle
is designed
to record
such data as:How
various
systems
in your
vehicle
were
oper
atin
g;
Whether
or
not
the
driver
and
passenger
safety belts were buckled/fastened;How
far
(if
at all)
the
driver
was
depress-
ing
the
accelerator
and/or
brake
pedal;
and,How fast the vehicle was traveling.
These
data
can
help
provide
a better
under
-
standing
of
the
circumstances
in
which
crashes
and
injuries
occur
.
To read
data
recorded
by
an
EDR,
special
equipment
is required,
and
access
to the
vehi-
cle
or
the
EDR
is needed.
In
addition
to
the
vehicle
manufacture
r, other
parties,
such
as
law
enforcement,
that
have
the
special
equip-
ment,
can
read
the
information
if they
have
access to the vehicle or the EDR.

are
attached
to the

and
provide
the
air-

control
unit
with
information
regarding

The
airbag
control
unit
controls
deployment
of the

with
the information it receives from this sensor

The
passenger

will
not
deploy
in
an
impact
when
the
weight
on
the
seat
is
sensed
to
be
less
than
approximately
66
pounds
(30
kg).
In
this
case,
the
passenger
’s
airbag of
f indicator will come on.
Refer to “Passenger

there
is
a problem
involving
the

warning
in
the

will
come

NOTE
EDR data
are

no

However
