SAFARI OCCUPANT RESTRAINT SYSTEM (ORS) : The Safari ORS system mainly consists of the following components : 1. Seat belts - Fitted on the LH and RH B pillars. 2. Belt Load Limiters - Fitted inside the belt retractor. 3. Belt Pre-tensioners - Fitted in the belt retractor. 4. Clock spring - Fitted on the steering column. 5. ORS ECU - Fitted on the tunnel under the console. 6. Driver airbag - Fitted behind the horn pad. 7. Passenger airbag - Fitted behind a special cover on the dashboard. Working : When the ORS ECU senses a crash of sufficient severity, it gives a "FIRE" signal to the belt pretensioners and the airbags. The belt pretensioners remove the slack in the belt reducing occupant forward motion, whereas the airbags protect the occupant head and chest from severe injuries due to interaction with vehicle interiors. Load limiters induce slack into the belts when the belt loads exceed a predefined limit. However load limiters are always used with airbags only.
