Seating and Safety Restraints Several air bag system components get hot after inflation. Do not touch them after inflation. If the airbag has deployed, the airbag will not function again and must be replaced immediately. If the airbag is not replaced, the unrepaired area will increase the risk of injury in a collision. The SRS consists of: • driver and passenger airbag modules (which include the inflators and airbags), • one or more impact and safing sensors and diagnostic monitor (RCM), • a readiness light and tone • the electrical wiring which connects the components. The RCM (restraints control module) monitors its own internal circuits and the supplemental airbag electrical system wiring (including the impact sensors, the system wiring, the airbag system readiness light, the airbag back up power and the airbag ignitors). Safety Canopyி system Do not place objects or mount equipment on or near the headliner at the siderail that may come into contact with a deploying Safety Canopy௢. Failure to follow these instructions may increase the risk of personal injury in the event of a collision. Do not lean your head on the door. The Safety Canopy௢ could injure you as it deploys from the headliner. 206 2005 Aviator (231) Owners Guide (post-2002-fmt) USA (fus)
