Occupant safety
Overview of occupant safety
In this section, you will learn the most impor-
tant facts about the restraint system compo-
nents of the vehicle.
The restraint system consists of:
R
seat belts
R
child restraint systems
R LATCH-type (ISOFIX) child seat anchors
Additional protection is provided by:
R SRS (Supplemental Restraint System)
R NECK-PRO head restraints
R air bag system components with:
- PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF indicator lamp
- front-passenger seat with Occupant
Classification System (OCS)
The different air bag systems work independ-
ently of each other. The protective functions
of the system work in conjunction with each
other. Not all air bags are always deployed in
an accident.
G WARNING
Modifications to or work improperly conduc-
ted on restraint system components or their
wiring, as well as tampering with interconnec-
ted electronic systems, can lead to the
restraint systems no longer functioning as
intended.
Air bags or Emergency Tensioning Devices
(ETDs), for example, could deploy inadver-
tently or fail to deploy in accidents although
the deceleration threshold for air bag deploy-
ment is exceeded. Therefore, never modify
the restraint systems. Do not tamper with
electronic components or their software.
