Determining if the system is operational
The supplemental restraint system uses a warning indicator light in the instrument cluster or a backup 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 airbag is not required.
A difficulty with the system is indicated by one or more of the following:
• The readiness light (same light for front and side airbag system) will either
flash or stay lit.
• The readiness 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/or light are repaired.
If any of these things happen, even intermittently, have the supplemental restraint system serviced at an authorized dealer immediately. Unless serviced, the system may not function properly in the event of a collision.
