Safety features of your vehicle
The  driver's seat  track  position  sensor,
which is installed on the seat track, deter-
mines if the  seat is fore or  aft of a refer-
ence position. The  seat belt buckle  sen-
sors determine if the driver and front pas-
senger's seat  belts are  fastened. These
sensors provide the  ability to control  the
SRS deployment based on how close the
driver's  seat  is  to  the   steering  wheel,
whether  or  not  the  seat  belts are  fas-
tened, and how severe the impact is.
Additionally,  your   vehicle  is   equipped
with an occupant classification system in
the front passenger's seat. The occupant
classification  system  detects  the  pres-
ence of a passenger in the front passen-
ger's seat and  will turn off  the front pas-
senger's  air   bag  under  certain   condi-
tions.  For  more  detail,   see  "Occupant
classification system" in this section.
WARNING
If  the occupant  classification  sys-
tem  is   not  working  properly,  the
SRS air bag warning light
on the
instrument   panel   will   illuminate
because  the SRS  air  bag  warning
light  is  connected  with  the  occu-
pant  classification   system.  If  the
SRS air bag warning  light does not
illuminate when the  ignition switch
is   turned    to   the   ON   position,
remains  illuminated  after  approxi-
mately 6 seconds when the ignition
switch is turned to the ON position,
or if it  illuminates while the vehicle
is being driven, have an authorized
WARNING
Modification to the seat structure
can   adversely   affect   the   seat
track position  sensor  and cause
the air bag to deploy at a different
level than should be provided.
Do not  place any  objects  under-
neath   the  front   seats   as  they
could   damage   the   seat   track
position sensor  or  interfere with
the  occupant  classification  sys-
tem.
The advanced   SRS offers  the ability  to
control the air bag inflation within two lev-
els. A first stage level is provided for mod-
erate-severity  impacts. A  second  stage
level is provided for more severe impacts.

inspect
the
advanced  SRS  air  bag  system as
soon as possible.
According to the impact  severity, seating
position and seat belt usage, the SRSCM
(SRS  Control  Module)  controls  the  air
bag  inflation.  Failure  to   properly  wear
seat belts can increase the risk or sever-
ity of injury in an  accident.
Do not place any objects that may
cause  magnetic  fields  near   the
front  seat.  These  may   cause  a
malfunction   of   the   seat   track
position sensor.
