58 THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE Airbag System Components The airbag system consists of the following: • Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) • Airbag Warning Light • Driver Airbag • Front Passenger Airbag • Side Curtain Airbags above Side Windows • Side Remote Acceleration Sensors • Steering Wheel and Column • Instrument Panel • Interconnecting Wiring • Front Acceleration Sensors • Front Passenger Seat Belt Pretensioner and Retractor - If Equipped • Occupant Classification System (OCS) - Front Passenger Seat Only − Occupant Classification Module (OCM) − Passenger Airbag Disable (PAD) Indicator Light − Weight Sensors How the Airbag System Works • The Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) determines if a frontal, side, or rollover collision is severe enough to require the airbags to inflate. The front airbag inflators are designed to provide different rates of airbag inflation from direction provided by the ORC. The ORC may also modify the rate of inflation based on the occupant size. The ORC receives this data from the Occupant Classification Module (OCM). The ORC will detect rollovers, but not rear impacts.
