The driver's and front passenger's
seat position sensors, which are
installed on the seat track let the
airbag control module know where
the seats are positioned. Similarly,
the safety belt usage sensors mea-
sure if the driver and front passen-
ger’s safety belts are fastened.These
sensors provide the ability to control
the SRS deployment based on how
close the driver’s seat is to the steer-
ing wheel, how close the passen-
ger’s seat is to the instrument panel,
whether or not the safety belts are
fastened, and the severity of the
impact.

The manual and the car is good. Your web site is like your dealers. Intrustive and obnoxious. Keep it simple and butt out of my life.
Excellent manual
