Front seat belt usage sensors

The front seat belt usage sensors detect whether or not the driver and

front outboard passenger seat belts are fastened. This information allows

your Personal Safety System™ to tailor the airbag deployment and seat

belt pretensioner activation depending upon seat belt usage. Refer to

Seat belt usage sensors later in this chapter.

Front outboard seat belt pretensioners

The seat belt pretensioners at the front outboard seating positions are

designed to tighten the seat belts firmly against the occupant’s body

during frontal collisions. This helps increase the effectiveness of the seat

belts. In frontal collisions, the seat belt pretensioners can be activated

alone or, if the collision is of sufficient severity, together with the front

airbags.

Front outboard seat belt energy management retractors

The front seat belt energy management retractors allow webbing to be

pulled out of the retractor in a gradual and controlled manner in

response to the occupant’s forward momentum. This helps reduce the

risk of force-related injuries to the occupant’s chest by limiting the load

on the occupant. Refer to Energy management retractors section in

this chapter.

Determining if the Personal Safety System™ is operational

The Personal Safety System™ uses a warning light in the instrument

cluster or a back-up tone to indicate the condition of the system. Refer

to the Warning lights and chimes section in the Instrument Cluster

chapter. Routine maintenance of the Personal Safety System™ is not

required.

The Restraints Control Module (RCM) monitors its own internal circuits

and the circuits for the airbag supplemental restraints, crash sensor(s),

seat belt pretensioners, front seat belt buckle sensors, front passenger

sensing system, and the driver seat position sensor. In addition, the RCM

also monitors the restraints warning light in the instrument cluster. A

difficulty with the system is indicated by one or more of the following.

• The warning light will either flash or stay lit.

• The warning light will not illuminate immediately after ignition is

turned on.

• A series of five beeps will be heard. The tone pattern will repeat

periodically until the problem and warning light are repaired.
