of the vehicle.

앫 Seat belts (컄 page 84)
앫 Child restraints (컄 page 94)
앫 Lower Anchors and Tethers for
CH
ildren (LATCH) (컄 page 93)

앫 Seat belt force limiter (컄 page 87)
앫 Active head restraints (컄 page 88)

앫 Front passenger front air bag off
indicator lamp (
컄 page 83)
앫 Front passenger seat with Occupant
C
lassification System (OCS)
(
컄 page 79)
Although independent systems, their
protective functions work in conjunction
with each other.
The SRS system conducts a self-test when
the ignition is switched on and in regular
intervals while the engine is running. This
facilitates early detection of malfunctions.
The
1 indicator lamp in the instrument
cluster (
컄 page 28) comes on when the
ignition is switched on and goes out no
later than a few seconds after the engine
was started.
The SRS components are in operational
readiness if the
1 indicator lamp is not
lit when the engine is running.
A malfunction in the system has been
detected if the
1 indicator lamp:
앫 fails to go out not later than approxi-
mately 4 seconds after the engine was
started
앫 does not come on at all
앫 comes on after the engine was started
or while driving
