Component Function
Air bag diagnosis sensor unit
  • Detects a collision and supplies power supply for deployment to air bag module and pre-tensioner seat belt.
  • It contains the "G" sensors for both frontal and side collisions and spare battery function in case of main battery damage in collision.
Combination meter (air bag warning lamp) Indicates air bag malfunctioning and deployment by blinking and illuminating air bag warning lamp.
Combination switch (spiral cable) Supplies power supply to driver air bag module on steering wheel.
Crash zone sensor
  • Transmits signal to air bag diagnosis sensor unit when a frontal collision occurs.
  • Crash zone sensor is a G sensor that outputs voltage signal during deceleration at the time of a vehicle frontal collision that is more than the specified limit is detected.
Curtain air bag module (front/rear)
  • Deploys according to collision judgment of G sensor, and safing sensor.
  • Receives collision signal from air bag diagnosis sensor unit, ignites, and burns ignition material by electric ignition system, when side collision exceeds setting limit of the vehicle. Gas is generated by chemical reaction of ignition material, passes filter, and deploys air bag.
  • Air bag module mainly consists of air bag and inflator that deploys air bag.
Driver air bag module
  • Receives signal from air bag diagnosis sensor unit and deploys air bag.
  • In case of frontal collision where acceleration is more than the specified level, the ignition materials are ignited by electric ignition system. The system burns the gas generating materials resulting in a chemical reaction. This generates hot gases that flow into the air bag through a filter and expand the bag.
Occupant detection system control unit Detects front passenger seat occupant.
Passenger air bag module
  • Receives signal from air bag diagnosis sensor unit and deploys air bag.
  • In case of frontal collision where acceleration is more than the specified level, the ignition materials are ignited by electric ignition system. The system burns the gas generating materials resulting in a chemical reaction. This generates hot gases that flow into the air bag through a filter and expand the bag.
Knee air bag module
  • Receives signal from air bag diagnosis sensor unit and deploys air bag.
  • In case of frontal collision where acceleration is more than the specified level, the ignition materials are ignited by electric ignition system. The system burns the gas generating materials resulting in a chemical reaction. This generates hot gases that flow into the air bag through a filter and expand the bag.
Front passenger air bag OFF indicator Indicates whether or not passenger air bag is in the activation mode based on the judgement of occupant classification system.
Satellite sensor (front/rear)
  • Transmits signal to air bag diagnosis sensor unit when a side collision occurs.
  • When air bag diagnosis sensor unit defines both signal voltage of the "G" sensor, and the safing algorithm to be that of collision which is more than the specified level, the driving circuit switches on and feeds the electric ignitor of both the side air bag and curtain air bag and seat belt pre-tensioner.
Seat belt buckle switch LH/RH Controls deployment timing depending on the seat belt condition that is fastened or unfastened.
Front seat belt pre-tensioner LH/RH
  • Receives signal from air bag diagnosis sensor unit and deploys front seat belt pre-tensioner.
  • In the case of a frontal collision or side collision or roll over that exceeds specified impact level, the air bag diagnosis sensor unit detects the deceleration caused by collision. It restrains the passenger with seat belt easing the stress on passengers chest with load limiter.
Rear seat belt pre-tensioner LH/RH
  • Receives signal from air bag diagnosis sensor unit and deploys rear seat belt pre-tensioner.
  • In the case of a frontal collision or side collision or roll over that exceeds specified impact level, the air bag diagnosis sensor unit detects the deceleration caused by collision. It restrains the passenger with seat belt easing the stress on passengers chest with load limiter.
Side air bag module LH/RH
  • Receives signal from air bag diagnosis sensor unit and deploys air bag.
  • In case of side collision where acceleration is more than the specified level, the ignition materials are ignited by electric ignition system. The system burns the gas generating materials resulting in a chemical reaction. This generates hot gases that flow into the air bag through a filter and expand the bag.
Front door satellite sensor LH/RH
  • Transmits signal to air bag diagnosis sensor unit when a side collision occurs.
  • When air bag diagnosis sensor unit defines both signal voltage of the "G" sensor, pressure sensor and the safing algorithm to be that of collision which is more than the specified level, the driving circuit switches on and feeds the electric ignitor of both the side air bag, curtain air bag and pre-tensioner.
Lap pre-tensioner LH/RH
  • Receives signal from air bag diagnosis sensor unit and deploys seat belt pre-tensioner and lap pre-tensioner.
  • In the case of a frontal collision or side collision that exceeds specified impact level, the air bag diagnosis sensor unit detects the deceleration caused by collision. It restrains the passenger with seat belt easing the stress on passengers chest with load limiter.
  • Lap pre-tensioner upgrades passenger restrain function by reducing movement of lumber during a frontal collision or side collision.
