SAFETY RESTRAINTS

Personal Safety System姟

The Personal Safety System娂 provides an improved overall level of

frontal crash protection to front seat occupants and is designed to help

further reduce the risk of airbag-related injuries. The system is able to

analyze different occupant conditions and crash severity before activating

the appropriate safety devices to help better protect a range of

occupants in a variety of frontal crash situations.

Your vehicle’s Personal Safety System娂 consists of:

• Driver and passenger dual-stage airbag supplemental restraints.

• Driver and front passenger side airbags (if equipped)

• Front safety belts with pretensioners, energy management retractors,

and safety belt usage sensors.

• Driver’s seat position sensor.

• Front crash severity sensor.

• Front passenger sensing system

• Restraints Control Module (RCM) with impact and safing sensors.

• Restraint system warning light and back-up tone.

• The electrical wiring for the airbags, crash sensor(s), safety belt

pretensioners, front safety belt usage sensors, driver seat position

sensor, and indicator lights.

How does the Personal Safety System姟 work?

The Personal Safety System娂 can adapt the deployment strategy of your

vehicle’s safety devices according to crash severity and conditions. A

collection of crash sensors provides information to the Restraints Control

Module (RCM). During a crash, the RCM activates the safety belt

pretensioners and/or either none, one, or both stages of the dual-stage

airbag supplemental restraints based on crash severity and conditions.

The fact that the pretensioners or airbags did not activate for both front

seat occupants in a collision does not mean that something is wrong with

the system. Rather, it means the Personal Safety System娂 determined

the accident conditions (crash severity, belt usage, etc.) were not

appropriate to activate these safety devices. Front airbags and

pretensioners are designed to activate only in frontal and near-frontal

collisions, not rollovers, side-impacts, or rear-impacts unless the collision

causes sufficient longitudinal deceleration.
