11.1.6.2.2 SENSORS

! CAUTION

Do not attempt to check or replace any impact sen-

sor unless the vehicle battery is disconnected. This

renders the sensing system "powered OFF". Wait for

at least 10 minutes after the battery is disconnected

and then start the relevant work/repair.

A. FRONT IMPACT SENSOR

(FIS)

These sensors are positioned well forward in the

crush zone that will react almost instantly to the sud-

den deceleration that results from the front impact.

They send signal to the SRS ECU and help in firing

the restraints in the minimum possible time. These

sensors are equipped with

“Safe Mode”

function to

ensure that the SRS fires only when there is a physi-

cal crash event of significant severity.
