analyze different occupant conditions and crash severity before activating
the appropriate safety devices to help better protect a range of
occupants in a variety of frontal crash situations.

Your vehicle’s Personal Safety System™ consists of:

Driver and passenger dual-stage airbag supplemental restraints

Front seat belts with pretensioners, energy management retractors,
and seat belt usage sensors

Front passenger sensing system

“Passenger airbag off” or “pass airbag off” indicator lamp

Front crash severity sensor

Restraints Control Module (RCM) with impact and safing sensors

Driver’s seat position sensor

Restraint system warning light and back-up tone

The electrical wiring for the airbags, crash sensor(s), seat belt
pretensioners, front seat belt usage sensors, driver seat position
sensor, front passenger sensing system, and indicator lights

How does the Personal Safety System™ work?

The Personal Safety System™ can adapt the deployment strategy of your
vehicle’s safety devices according to crash severity and occupant
conditions. A collection of crash and occupant sensors provides
information to the Restraints control module (RCM). During a crash, the
RCM activates the seat belt pretensioners and/or both stages of the
dual-stage airbag supplemental restraints based on crash severity and
occupant conditions.

The fact that the pretensioners or airbags did not activate for both front
seat occupants in a collision does not mean that something is wrong with
the system. Rather, it means the Personal Safety System™ determined
the accident conditions (crash severity, belt usage, etc.) were not
appropriate to activate these safety devices. Front airbags are designed
to activate only in frontal and near-frontal collisions, not rollovers,
side-impacts, or rear-impacts unless the collision causes sufficient
longitudinal deceleration.

Dual-stage airbag supplemental restraints

The dual-stage airbag offers the capability to tailor the level of airbag
inflation energy. A lower, less forceful energy level is provided for more
common, moderate-severity impacts. A higher energy level is used for
the most severe impacts. Refer to

Airbag supplemental restraints

section in this chapter.
