THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE 47 OCM to ensure that the resultant bladder pressure increase due to applied lap belt tension does not cause a small occupant to be classified as a larger occupant How the Bladder Mat and Pressure Sensor Works The Bladder Mat and Pressure Sensor are located beneath the seat cushion foam. The pressure sensor sends a signal to the OCM. The passenger seat assembly contains critical components that affect the passenger airbag deployment. Correctly functioning passenger seat components are critical for the Occupant Classification System (OCS) to properly classify the passenger and calculate the proper airbag deployment. Do not make any modifications to the passenger seat components, assembly, or to the seat cover. How the Driver/Passenger Inflatable Knee Blockers Works When the ORC and the impact sensors detect a collision requiring the Driver/Passenger Inflatable Knee Blockers, it signals the inflator unit. A quantity of nontoxic gas is generated to inflate the Driver/Passenger Inflatable Knee Blockers. The Driver/Passenger Inflatable Knee Blockers inflates rearward towards the driver's knees to help protect the knees and position you for the best interaction with the front airbag. The Driver/Passenger Inflatable Knee Blockers fully inflates in about 50 milliseconds, this is only about half of the time it takes you to blink your eyes. It then quickly deflates while helping to protect the driver's knees. The Knee Impact Blockers help protect the knees and position the occupant.
