CHRYSLER AIRBAG SYSTEM COMPONENT LOCATION

A dual front airbag system (Fig. 1) utilizes driver and passenger airbags. Both the driver and passenger airbags are certified to new federal regulations, which allows them to deploy with less force than prior airbags. The primary occupant restraints in this vehicle are the seat belts, which require active use by the vehicle occupants.

The front airbag system is a supplemental passive restraint that was designed and is intended to enhance the protection for the front seat occupants of the vehicle when used in conjunction with the seat belts. The driver airbag includes an inflatable airbag and an inflator unit behind a trim cover in the hub area of the steering wheel. The passenger airbag includes an inflatable airbag and an inflator unit behind an airbag door in the instrument panel above the glove box.

The dual front airbag system consists of the following components: ² Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) ² Airbag indicator lamp. ² Clock Spring ² Driver and passenger airbags (including the airbag inflators).

1 - DRIVER AIRBAG
2 - CLOCK SPRING
3 - PASSENGER AIRBAG
4 - OCCUPANT RESTRAINT CONTROLLER (ORC)
