The airbag sensor assembly consists of a safing sensor and airbag sensor. In a severe frontal impact, the sensors detect deceleration and the system triggers the front airbag inflators. In a severe side impact, the side airbag sensor triggers the side airbag inflator. At this time, a chemical reaction in the inflators quickly fills the airbags with non−toxic gas to help restrain the forward or lateral motion of the occupants. 108 2002 MY RX300_U (OM48416U)
