2008 RESTRAINTS

Airbag - General - Sedona

DESCRIPTION

The Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) is designed to supplement the seat belt to help reduce the risk or
severity of injury to the driver and passenger by activating and deploying the driver, passenger, side airbag and
belt pre-tensioner in certain frontal or side collisions.

The SRS (Airbag) consists of: a driver side airbag module located in the center of the steering wheel, which
contains the folded cushion and an inflator unit; a passenger side airbag module located in the passenger side
crash pad contains the folded cushion assembled with inflator unit; side airbag modules located in the driver and
passenger seat contain the folded cushion and an inflator unit ; curtain airbag modules located inside of the
headliner which contains folded cushions and inflator units. The impact sensing function of the SRSCM is
carried out by electronic accelerometer that continuously measure the vehicle's acceleration and delivers a
corresponding signal through amplifying and filtering circuitry to the microprocessor.

SRSCM (SRS CONTROL MODULE)

SRSCM will detect front impact with front impact sensor, and side impact with side impact sensor, and
determine airbag module deployment.

1. DC/DC converter: DC/DC converter in power supply unit includes up/down transformer converter, and

provide ignition voltage for 2 front airbag ignition circuits and the internal operation voltage of the
SRSCM. If the internal operation voltage is below critical value setting, it will perform resetting.

2. Safety sensor: Safety sensor is located in airbag ignition circuit. Safety sensor will operate airbag circuit

at any deployment condition and release airbag circuit safely at normal driving condition. Safety sensor is
a double contact electro-mechanical switch that will close detecting deceleration above certain criteria.

3. Back up power supply: SRSCM has separate back up power supply, that will supply deployment energy

instantly in low voltage condition or upon power failure by front crash.

4. Self diagnosis: SRSCM will constantly monitor current SRS operation status and detect system failure

while vehicle power supply is on, system failure may be checked with trouble codes using scan tool. (Hi-
Scan)

5. Airbag warning lamp on: Upon detecting error, the module will transmit signal to SRSCM indicator lamp

located at cluster. MIL lamp will indicate driver SRS error. Upon ignition key on, SRS lamp will turn on
for about six seconds.

6. Trouble code registration: Upon error occurrence in system, SRSCM will store DTC corresponding to the

error. DTC can be cleared only by Hi-Scan. However, if an internal fault code is logged or if a crash is
recorded the fault clearing should not happen.

7. Self diagnostic connector: Data stored in SRSCM memory will be output to Hi-Scan or other external

output devices through connector located below driver side crash pad.

8. Once airbag is deployed, SRSCM should not be used again but replaced.

9. SRSCM will determine whether passenger put on seat belt by the signal from built-in switch in seat belt

buckle, and deploy front seat airbag at each set crash speed.

10. Side airbag deployment will be determined by SRSCM that will detect satellite sensor impact signal upon

side crash, irrespective to seat belt condition.
