The airbags inflate and deflate

rapidly upon activation. After airbag

deployment, it is normal to notice a

smoke-like, powdery residue or

smell the burnt propellant. This may

consist of cornstarch, talcum

powder or sodium compounds which

may irritate the skin and eyes, but

none of the residue is toxic.

While the SRS is designed to help

reduce serious injuries, contact with

a deploying airbag may also cause

abrasions, swelling or temporary

hearing loss. Because airbags must

inflate rapidly and with considerable

force, there is the risk of death or

serious injuries such as fractures, facial and eye injuries or internal

injuries, particularly to occupants who are not properly restrained or are

otherwise out of position at the time of airbag deployment. It is

extremely important that occupants be properly restrained as far away

from the airbag module as possible while maintaining vehicle control.

The SRS consists of:

• driver and passenger airbag modules (which include the inflators and

airbags)

• one or more impact and safing sensors

• a readiness light and tone

• a diagnostic module

• and the electrical wiring which connects the components

The RCM (restraints control module) monitors its own internal circuits

and the supplemental airbag electrical system wiring (including the

impact sensors, the system wiring, the airbag system readiness light, the

airbag back up power and the airbag ignitors).

Several air bag system components get hot after inflation. Do not

touch them after inflation.

If the airbag has deployed, the airbag will not function again

and must be replaced immediately. If the airbag is not

replaced, the unrepaired area will increase the risk of injury in a

collision.
