Front Passenger's Side Air Bag Module

FRONT PASSENGER'S SIDE AIR BAG MODULE






CAUTION: Improper services cause the sudden operation of front passenger's air bag module or the system to be inoperative. Do not disassemble or tamper with the air bag module to prevent the serious injury.

The front passenger's air bag module consists of an air bag, inflator, module cover (incorporating the instrument panel pad), and their fasteners.

The air bag is made from nylon and inflates by the gas from the inflator. As a passenger is being pressed to the air bag, it deflates, discharging gas from two vent holes at the side of the air bag to reduce the shock from the impact.

The front passenger's air bag deploys by changing its inflation pressure in two steps.

The inflator has two squib connector to deploy the air bag in two steps.

The front passenger air bag does not deploy at the front passenger seat is not occupied and when the occupant classification sensor in the front passenger seat senses a weight on the seat of less than 66 pounds (30 kg).
