As independent systems, their protective
functions work in conjunction with each
other.
The SRS system conducts a self-test when
the ignition is switched on and in regular
intervals while the engine is running. This
facilitates early detection of malfunctions.
The
1 indicator lamp in the instrument
cluster comes on when the ignition is
switched on and goes out no later than a
few seconds after the engine has been
started.
The SRS components are in operational
readiness if the
1 indicator lamp is not
lit when the engine is running.
A malfunction in the system has been
detected if the
1 indicator lamp:
ț fails to go out after approximately four
seconds after the engine was started
ț does not come on at all
ț comes on after the engine was started
or while driving
